11thBn Durham Light infantry Operation Martlet June 1944
Romain Bréget - French Battlefields Guide的点评
点评:We booked a battlefield tour with Leger from the 11th April to the 14th April. We were hoping to visit a particular CWGC gravesite as part of the tour. Unfortunately the tour did not visit the area. Thanks to Ben Mayne our tour guide he liaised with Romain to ensure that we could fulfil our request to visit the Grave of Pte Harry Hadfield 11th Durham Light Infantry who was killed on the 28th June 1944 in the area of RAURAY. He was part of a crew of a Universal carrier with my wife's father who was captured and was a POW for the remainder of the war. Romain met us at the Bayeux cemetery and took us to visit the Polar Bear Memorial, the village where he was killed and then to the cemetery where we paid our respects on behalf of my wife's father. Romain was very helpful going the extra mile to assist us in filling in the blank spaces. We will recommend him to friends who are planning a trip to Normandy if they want to use the expertise of a local guide who knows the area and has a great knowledge on events of the time. Thank you Romain for your assistance.
翻译:我们预订了 Leger 旅行社的战场之旅,时间为 4 月 11 日至 4 月 14 日。我们希望在旅途中参观一处特定的 CWGC 墓地。不幸的是,旅行团没有参观该地区。感谢我们的导游 Ben Mayne,他与 Romain 联络,确保我们能够满足参观第 11 达勒姆轻步兵团二等兵 Harry Hadfield 之墓的请求。Hadfield 于 1944 年 6 月 28 日在 RAURAY 地区阵亡。他和我岳父一起乘坐通用运输船,我岳父被俘后在战争的剩余时间里一直是战俘。Romain 在巴约公墓与我们会面,带我们参观了北极熊纪念碑和他遇害的村庄,然后去了公墓,我们在那里代表我岳父表达了敬意。Romain 非常乐于助人,不辞辛劳地帮助我们填补了空白。对于那些计划前往诺曼底旅行的朋友,如果他们想聘请一位熟悉当地情况、对当时事件了如指掌的当地导游,我们会推荐他。感谢Romain的帮助。
