Very Good. That Ford GT is almost half a million $ today . You even have to apply for ownership and be approved for purchase by Ford.

Bout 250 miles from Calais , breakfast at Pegasus bridge cafe , the house is the first house to be liberated by the allies on D Day, followed by a German radar station near Sword beach

BLIGHTYBRIT/SF · Jun 15, 2019

Omaha beach today 4 miles wide , very humbling, many recent additions to local museums & memorial s,apart from the new British Normandy Memorial at “ Ver sue mer” the one honoured & unveiled by our PM Theresa May & President Macron, would post a pic but it can no longer been seen , it’s encased in wooden pallet types slats standing on its own in the middle of a field , still only been 75 years to get this far

Are you still on the road Richard ?

BLIGHTYBRIT/SF · Jun 16, 2019

Yes Tony , our budget hotel is in middle of all the sights to see, been back to Pegasus today to the memorial museum today, the bridge was attacked by 3 gliders that landed just 50m from the bridge, when some senior Russians arrived a few weeks later they couldn’t believe they landed so close to target & said the whole thing was staged , on to Merville batterie another one of the 11,000 bunker gun emplacements built from Spain to Scandinavia , heading back tomorrow & hoping to reach a V1/V2 Rocket base on the way back
V1/
