Re: The route to the National
You're right; it should be seen once. I know a guy with a house not far away and he goes every time he's there, which is a bit morbid.
Funnily enough, some of those responsible ended up in graveyards close to my place in Normandy.
Also, the grandfather of a chap who stayed with us in Normandy a couple of weeks ago was in an SS division and was captured in Normandy. He had a son (the chap's father) while on parole in England after the war, went back to Germany and the family haven't managed to track him down. I wondered if he took part in what happened in Oradour.
