Alex,
The fireworks show is fantastic, and should not be missed (one hardly can when within 10 kilometres within the coastline). However, as I suspect traffic will be severely curtailed, or at least heavily controlled, on 6 June, the 5th is not an ideal option. I have discussed to possibilities with the Dutch people setting up the British/Canadian camp at Longues, and they would opt for 3 June.
Therefore I propose to have an impromptu MLU / CMP / MCP / British Historic Military Vehicle meeting at
Date: Wednesday 3 June
Time: from 12:00 hrs onwards.
Location: Batterie de Longues at Longues-sur-Mer (see the map).
Please post a message here if this is a viable option for you - and please spread the word!
More details will be posted here if and when they become available.
Thanks,
Hanno
