Saw these last week when we were wandering around Domfront. One to commemorate the bombing of the town 14th June 1944. The other by the old castle to comemorate a safe house , that was unviewable thanks to a very large hedge. I must admit my youngest lad found this one , he said I'd find it interesting.
I've seen a photo of US planes bombing the railway near Domfront, anyone have anymore info on the raid mentioned in that street memorial? I've just noticed it's 14th June today too. File:Normandy-barrage.jpg - Wikimedia Commons
Where possible, I love to exactly identify where an image was taken. Not much to see here, but I can't seem to stop myself. First the former rail yard, and then, the road pattern at the lower right helped me identify the area (attached). http://www.ww2talk.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=53226&stc=1&d=1308063300
Aha! Good stuff. I've just twigged that I drove along that same road in the lower right. The railway is all gone now.
Pictures of the bomb damaged town found here. I think this was taken in August. p011226.jpg | Flickr - Photo Sharing!
