Eric’s Grave is in the center of the 3rd row of left half.

Remained in place!
5 RAF aircrew buried together, likely recovered from their crashed plane?
Looking back to the road, the approach is off the beaten track.
Views from the left side -
Show it’s relatively small width.
Looking back down the central approach.
Colleen checking headstones for others who may have died with Eric?
Not easy to read the plaques explain that the ground was given by a grateful French Nation in perpuity for those that lost their lives to bring Freedom!
