The Donors

Every year, some people interested in the events of August 19th 1942 contact us entrusting us with objects, writings or military accessories dedicated to the Raid of Dieppe in 1942. Those gifts or lets are very important to enhance the collection of our Memorial and a convention will be signed by the two parties.

 

We are convinced that are still testimonies, historic treasures of any kind linked to this event : they are left in a corner with family souvenirs without knowing that they might have a historic value or an important value for your town.

 

We ask for your memory and please do contact our First Vice President if you believe to hold any testimony concerning this event. Thank you !
