    Great pics.Last year,I saw a show in which the filmcrew was able to go in a bunker that had been closed since the war was over.It was like the Nz had just left.On the walls were instructions for shooting distances.They would shoot one gun to the left,and one gun to the right.The next one would do the same thing.As the troops approached,they would be getting sprayed from both sides. Everything the NZ had in it,was still in it.

    I have a friend I worked with for a few years who is now the Count de Belloy. We visited his family and toured Normandy in 1994. We had a wonderful time. Drank some Calvados over 100 years old. I don't think we were supposed to finish the bottle, but it seemed like the thing to do. If I'm not mistaken after 2 decades, this is his home.
