Rue Harry Hawkins and the QOR

In the town of Giberville there was a special plaque unveiled commemorating actions by a member of the QOR from 1944. The flag bearer is the husband of the WAC.

The Mayor and QOR (our group) laid wreaths. The lady beside the plaque is a Canadian , living in France. I only knew her as Mary. She is a member of "Friends of Canada" a group in France working to remember and document the WWII activities of Canadians.

When we were all finsihed off we all marched to lunch, sponsored by the village. The chef served about 50 people!!

Poppies growing in the stone walls.
