    Default Anyone visiting Normandy anytime soon?

    If anyone here is planning on visiting Normandy sometime soon and would be willing to take some close up pictures of my great uncles grave marker, I would appreciate it very much. He is buried at the Normandy American cemetery in Colleville-sur-Mer, France. His grave location is Plot B, Row 13, Grave 13. His name is 1LT Jay V. Thomson and died on 14 July 1944.

    Joel,

    Did you get the photos you wanted from Paul?

    I am leaving for Normandy very early Saturday morning, so if you still require the photos let me know before tomorrow evening.
