The Omaha Beach-Bedford twinning maintains its ties

At its general meeting on Thursday, under the chairmanship of Bertrand Le Jemtel, the Omaha Beach–Bedford twinning committee took stock of 2009-2010. All the reports of the Bureau were adopted unanimously.

Several members had stayed in Bedford in October. The president recalled the importance of these contacts to maintain the memory of the dead of June 1944 and to promote exchanges between communities. The ceremonies of June 6 were marked by the presence of veteran John Orofino.

New people joined the board of directors, but the office remained unchanged. A subsequent meeting was to define the upcoming program.
