A few photos taken at ‘Camp Arizona’, Carentan today.

Amazed by the amount and time, effort and money these people put in to their re-enactment.













































































































That’s all !

Yes there are various events like this throughout Manche (Lower Normandy).

As stated above by Easyrider5258 next year will be the main event as the 70th anniversary. It would be worth a visit if you are in the area. I should imagine the ferries will put up prices too, so try and get a good deal as soon as possible.
