In late August of 2025, I wrote about the permanent memorial to US soldiers being planned in Gouesnou France.
One of the soldiers was a cousin’s grandfather. His mother’s father died in Gouesnou during World War II when she was two years old. Because I had her name in my family tree, someone associated with the memorial contacted me, and others, to locate relatives. I’m happy to say my cousin was contacted.
My cousin emailed me this afternoon and sent me pictures from the event. He said it was a very moving ceremony. It is nice to know that soldiers have continued to be honored overseas for over 80 years.
