Haig is obviously a divisive figure, but not one who should be posthumously ‘cancelled’, at least in my opinion. Congratulations, therefore, to John Acton [OH 1958], who successfully masterminded the restoration of his statue in Normandy. It was officially unveiled in June, to great acclaim and amid considerable ceremony! Click here for the Programme![]() ![]() The following regiments had personnel attending:
The Royal British Legion and The Royal British Legion Scotland were represented. The Mayor of Montreuil was accompanied by many French dignitaries. It was a spectacular ceremony with all the Military in full dress uniforms. |
