My School Trip to France

My School Trip to France http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance.html In October, I went on a school community service trip to France to learn about WWI and WWII. We earned our community service hours there by helping a lady disassemble an old bunker so that it could be rebuilt. It was really cold there but it was fun. This is the US cemetary near Omaha Beach. http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance.html#0 a0554ba9-f349-472f-85b3-464990aa41de http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance_files/Media/PA220881.jpg?derivative=thumb http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance_files/Media/PA220881.jpg?derivative=micro <div style="padding: 0px; " class="image_cluster_layout_style_default_External_182_57"><div class="image_cluster_layout_style_default"><p style="padding-bottom: 0pt; padding-top: 0pt; " class="Caption">This is the US cemetary near Omaha Beach.</p></div></div> Graves marked with gold lettering indicates a Medal of Honor recipient. http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance.html#1 b6bd6a69-ff78-421b-8ab5-e9a7c5707fd3 http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance_files/Media/PA220902.jpg?derivative=thumb http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance_files/Media/PA220902.jpg?derivative=micro <div style="padding: 0px; " class="image_cluster_layout_style_default_External_182_57"><div class="image_cluster_layout_style_default"><p style="padding-bottom: 0pt; padding-top: 0pt; " class="Caption">Graves marked with gold lettering indicates a Medal of Honor recipient.</p></div></div> This is the memorial in the cemetary. http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance.html#2 5a5adfa9-1dbb-4591-ad74-d8c0af175fc6 http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance_files/Media/PA220905.jpg?derivative=thumb http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance_files/Media/PA220905.jpg?derivative=micro <div style="padding: 0px; " class="image_cluster_layout_style_default_External_182_57"><div class="image_cluster_layout_style_default"><p style="padding-bottom: 0pt; padding-top: 0pt; " class="Caption">This is the memorial in the cemetary.</p></div></div> This is Pegasus bridge, made famous in “Saving Private Ryan”. http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance.html#3 e6c456d7-a215-4451-9be0-cef44008b908 http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance_files/Media/PA220938.jpg?derivative=thumb http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance_files/Media/PA220938.jpg?derivative=micro <div style="padding: 0px; " class="image_cluster_layout_style_default_External_182_57"><div class="image_cluster_layout_style_default"><p style="padding-bottom: 0pt; padding-top: 0pt; " class="Caption">This is Pegasus bridge, made famous in “Saving Private Ryan”.</p></div></div> This is the bunker we helped disassemble so it could be rebuilt with fresh sandbags. http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance.html#4 d0e4c194-ade9-4184-8c58-181b1e51a777 http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance_files/Media/PA240961.jpg?derivative=thumb http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance_files/Media/PA240961.jpg?derivative=micro <div style="padding: 0px; " class="image_cluster_layout_style_default_External_182_57"><div class="image_cluster_layout_style_default"><p style="padding-bottom: 0pt; padding-top: 0pt; " class="Caption">This is the bunker we helped disassemble so it could be rebuilt with fresh sandbags.</p></div></div> An excavation site of an old defensive trench. http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance.html#5 6ab55a01-16cf-4dc8-b234-d7fdf269b986 http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance_files/Media/PA240977.jpg?derivative=thumb http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance_files/Media/PA240977.jpg?derivative=micro <div style="padding: 0px; " class="image_cluster_layout_style_default_External_182_57"><div class="image_cluster_layout_style_default"><p style="padding-bottom: 0pt; padding-top: 0pt; " class="Caption">An excavation site of an old defensive trench.</p></div></div> They had just found a tin of corned beef from WWI! http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance.html#6 77547e69-9bff-4a79-b22e-990f24140e32 http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance_files/Media/PA240978.jpg?derivative=thumb http://web.mac.com/donnellk/Travel/GrantFrance_files/Media/PA240978.jpg?derivative=micro <div style="padding: 0px; " class="image_cluster_layout_style_default_External_182_57"><div class="image_cluster_layout_style_default"><p style="padding-bottom: 0pt; padding-top: 0pt; " class="Caption">They had just found a tin of  corned beef from WWI!</p></div></div> We found an old grenade laying at the side of the road!
