EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures the serene beauty and solemnity of Ryes Commonwealth War Graves Cemetery, located in Normandy, France. Established just two days after the D-Day landings on June 7, 1944, this cemetery holds the final resting place for 653 Commonwealth soldiers, one Polish soldier, and 325 German soldiers. The brave men of the 2nd Battalion Dorset Regiment, alongside the 1st Battalion Royal Hampshire Regiment, played a pivotal role in liberating Ryes in the late afternoon on D-Day. The cemetery serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made during the historic invasion, which marked a turning point in the Second World War. The meticulously maintained grounds offer a tranquil space for reflection and remembrance, where visitors can pay their respects to the fallen heroes.
