Just thought I would share my happiness with you all...

My Hubby and daughter are off to Normandy this morning for the D Day Celebrations parade.

They are both (and myself) in the Army Cadet Force and the cadets are going to be on parade tomorrow. 10 counties from England have been selected to attend each sending approx 36 cadets.

As this is going to be the last time the veterans will be attending they are handing it over the the Army Cadet Force to carry on the parades as of next year.

I am so proud of them doing it. The cadets
from our county had to raise money to help finance it and they raised around £9,000 doing different things. My daughter did a bag pack and a sponsored walk along Hadrians wall.

I willk be watching the TV tomorrow hoping to catch a glimps of them

UPDATE
Just finished watching the BBC news and Sarah and our other cadets from the county were on guard in front of the band that was playing throughout the service.
