D Day Celebrations at Charnwood
This afternoon residents and staff came together to acknowledge the anniversary of D Day, Our guest of honor was Roy, who for many years visited Normandy as a standard bearer, and took part in the ceremony at Charles De Percy. Roy is still in regular contact with Jacques Desmorceau, who was mayor of Charles de Percy until last year. Roy’s daughter sent some video footage of the ceremony and indeed of Roy, who proudly held the British Legion Flag. We were all privileged to be given the opportunity to see Roy’s involvement in the ceremony first hand. He later told me that the French truly know how to celebrate and do so in style
