1 - This first one shows how crowded the streets were for the parade in Le Muy.

2 - My favorite picture - Gene Frice waving to someone hanging out an upstairs window.

3 - The third picture shows what it was like to be IN the parade: the crowd pushing in on the street, taking pictures and shaking hands.

4 - A small boy being held up to shake hands with a veteran. Pretty cool.

5 - Leo Dean, Gene Frice, Allan Johnson, Jesse Davis, and Merle McMorrow at the community dinner the last night in Le Muy. Marty and Lud Gibbons had already left that night.

6 - Allan Johnson, a bit of Leo Dean over his shoulder, our German friend Hans, and our French friend Jean Veyan.

7 - Allan Johnson, Jean Veyan, and Leo Dean examining a reserve chute, still packed tightly after 60 years.

8 - The champagne has been broken out for the celebration of a liberator finding his landing spot after 60 years. Allan Johnson, Leo Dean, various family members and the French family. Hans is on the right. Such a French moment!

This one shows the men of the 517 with Aime: Gene Frice, Lud Gibbons, Aime, Leo Dean, Allan Johnson, and Merle McMorrow.  This was taken at a community lunch during the celebration days.
