Well what an end to our day.... we we’re off to Maisy Battery http://www.maisybattery.com/ where Dan took us on a wonderful tour. They educated our children about the sacrifices made by all the WWII Veterans, US and British alike. After all, once the men of the 2nd and 5th Rangers landed on the beaches and were left there, in the words of Ranger veteran Daniel Farley: “we could only go in One Direction: forwards, towards the enemy!”
It truly was a unique opportunity to explore German bunkers and trenches, go into lit bunkers and tunnels if they wanted too – and get close too and touch real WWII field guns – in a safe and secure site.
Dan certainly knows his stuff and not one question baffled him (even those questions teachers shake their head at :) ha!) truly inspirational!
