Default MLU @ Normandy 2019 meeting: 4 June (not the 3rd)

All, we had a Longues Camp meeting today, and decided to move the MLU @ Normandy meeting to Tuesday 4 June, instead of 3rd June. This was decided so more people can attend.

So here's what we plan to do:
  • A friendly gathering for MLU members, families & friends. You are welcome from 09:00 hrs.

  • We will line up the Canadian and British vehicles in our camp between 10:00 - 12:00 hrs. This will be a great photo opportunity.

  • After 12:00 hrs you are welcome to leave - or stay longer if you wish to visit the Batteries, kick some tyres, meet fellow MLU members.

Note:
- If you drive a non-Commonwealth vehicle, you are more than welcome, but please park your vehicle outside of the camp.
- If required, bring you own food & beverages.

Date: Tuesday 4 June, 10:00 - 12:00 hrs.
Location: Batterie de Longues-sur-Mer

Hope to see you there!

Hanno

Plus another nine who have American, or American marked vehicles who will have to park outside.

Hi Hanno,

Thanks for the invite, we'll be there with the Morris CDSW light recovery.

Keep the coffee hot, it could be a slow run up.

We're on the MVT tour and wouldn't mind running up with others.

Cheers,

Paul

Looking forward to our small meet-up, next week!


Is there anyone onboard the Liberation task force/XXX Corps events in Normandy? Is there an XXXCorps camp anywhere.....or is it a mix of participants from different campsites/Hotels??

Alex

Hi Hanno. I'm sort of heading up a largish group of motorcyclists, based at Etreham. Unfortunately we have a run planned for the 4th. But we will definitely be calling in at Lonques before that. Maybe over the weekend or Monday 3rd. We might catch you if you know what times you're likely to be on site. Ron
