Llancaiach Fawr Manor,Glamorgan 4th & 5th June 2012

Post by southern reb »

Llancaiach Fawr Manor in conjunction with the WW2 LHA, present a major new event: Preparation for Invasion - Operation Neptune.

This event will be taking place on Monday 4th and Tuesday 5th June 2012 at this stunning historical property near Caerphilly, South Wales, and will commemorate both the vital service given by those on the home front and also the D-Day landings in Normandy. On Monday night there will be a 40s dance, with food and a bar.(Proffesional 1940`s singer & a big band)

British, Commonwealth and American troops will be undergoing pre invasion training in the grounds of the house whilst the German defenders, unaware that the largest invasion armada ever assembled will be heading for the coast of Normandy, go about their daily business in an infantry divisional HQ located in an occupied manor house not far from the Normandy coast.

If you or your group would like to attend, please contact David at lha@ww2lha.co.uk .

The site and house can be seen here: http://www.caerphilly.gov.uk/llancaiachfawr/
More details of the event will be added as I get them.
regards
Ian
