Post The Remembrance Day Competition - Ivor Stanley Rich 
We have delivered a wreath to grave of IvorJ's relative in Normandy.

Ivor Stanley Rich, after whom IvorJ was named, is buried in Banneville La Campagne Cemetery and we took some photographs of the occasion which we'll post as soon as possible.

This wreath placing completes the Remembrance Day Competition. It was a very successful competition that has led to many acts of remembrance around the world.

While we prepare the photographs from the trip, here are the first two images:

Post Ivor Stanley Rich. In memoriam. 
All those gravestones, Barry, and thanks to you some of them picked out and honoured by you on our behalf. It is enough to know that on our site they have been truly honoured, possibly for the first time. Thank you.

I would like to thank Barry through this website, as I have done privately, for his actions in honouring those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. As I gaze across those headstones I am reminded how much we owe those who gave their lives, and hope that it hasn't been wasted. A visit to the war cemetries should be compulsory for senior servants in the MOD before they get any privileges.
Great stuff Barry I reckon you are an hero.

Ivor Rich ex RN
