SIR – Between Monday, June 2, and Saturday, June 7, I will be leading a group from the north of England to attend events in Normandy to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the D-Day landings and the Normandy campaign in 1944.
There will be an opportunity to pay respects to a relative at the Commonwealth War cemeteries and memorials as well as attending special ceremonies in Caen, Bayeux and the landing beaches. We will also visit significant areas associated with the Normandy campaign.
En route we will visit Bletchley Park, where the Enigma machine was used to significant effect in the campaign.
We still have a few places left and convenient local pick-up points can be arranged. I will be happy to supply details to any of your readers if they contact me at 2 Eden Gate, Warcop, Appleby-in-Westmorland, Cumbria CA16 6PL or telephone me on (017683) 41060 or 07710 270640.
David Raw, Eden Gate, Cumbria
