un soldat du "Hereforshire" en position pour sa libération de Durcet.
"These deeds which should not pass away. Names that must not wither.
The Last Post sounded, the soldier sleeps who died in honour.
Only those who have loved and lost, can understand war's bitter cost.
Oh for the touch of a vanished hand and the sound of a voice so still.
When days are dark and friends are few,
My Dear Son, How I long for you.......
No dear one's stood beside him to hear his last farewell.
While he lies in silent sleep, his memory we will always keep"

La Normandie est l'un des espaces historiques les plus visités de France. Souvenons nous que notre région fut le témoin des combats de la Bataille de Normandie entre les mois de juin et d'août 1944, qui ont laissé de nombreuses traces sur le territoire Normand.
