Day 7 - Thursday 7 June - Coming Home

Well, the Cadets and Instructors are on their way home. In fact, we've just had a text message to say that they've landed at Portsmouth and are on their way back to Oxford. We've had a great time and this evening the house feels very quiet. It has been an exciting and busy week, but one that we'll always remember and we hope that the Cadets have some wonderful memories to take home.

We are grateful to all those who have made us so welcome this week. Especially to the Maire of Bénouville, the Maire of Escoville and the Maire of Herouvillette. We would also like to thank General Sir Robert Pascoe, Mrs Penny Bates, M. Marc Jacquinot (the Director of the Pegasus Memorial Museum) and all those Veterans who took time to talk to us and share their memories.
