Europe 2025 Day 6

10 May

Day 6 of the St. Patrick Social Science trip the Northern Europe in March 2025. The video covers our day at Vimy Ridge, Beaumont Hamel and in Normandy. The first part of our day took us just north of Arras to the Canadian National Vimy Memorial, where we learned more about the victory and sacrifice of our soldiers at the monument, tunnels and trenches. Then we were on to the Beaumont Hamel battlefield, a place of loss for the Newfoundland Regiment at the Battle of the Somme. A long drive followed, taking us to Normandy and the Bretteville sur Laize Canadian Cemetery. *The video title indicates Day 5, but it is in fact Day 6. Apologies.
