Terry Carter Posted 6 April , 2005 Share Posted 6 April , 2005 Helo all I am sorry if this has been asked before. Does anyone know if a timetable is being put together for Saturday 1 July 2006, at various places around the Somme battlefield. I take it there will be a service at Lochnagar Crater at 07:30 but will similar services take place at the same time in other parts of the 1 July 1916 battlefield? No doubt there will be a big commemoration service at Thiepval Memorial. I am thinking of following the footsteps of the 1/8 and 1/6 Royal Warwicks at 07:30 1 July 1916 during their advance over the Heidenkopf Redoubt. Will others be doing the same in other parts of the former front line? Regards Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Reed Posted 6 April , 2005 Share Posted 6 April , 2005 I am hoping to organise something for that weekend, but it is still in the planning stage. As far as I am aware, the Somme Tourist authorities have still not finalised anything for this anniversary. The last time I spoke to them, they didn't really seem to appreciate what a big anniversary it's going to be! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
