We camped in Ranville on the 5th and 6th June this year with the express purpose of seeing the commemorations.
The weather on the 5th was excellent but the 6th was a washout so we headed south in very scary blustery weather.
The veterans had been ferried over to Ranville by the taxi charity organisation

I had excellent conversations with those I photographed except for the lady in the wheelchair who gave me a smile and a wave!
The commando was particularly interesting to chat to as he had been a member of 48 Commando and I'd just finished doing some research work on that unit.
