セント. ゼーブルッヘのほくろに対するジョージの日の襲撃は、最近のイギリスとベルギーの歴史の中で最も刺激的なエピソードでした. ひどい人命の損失にもかかわらず, ゼーブルッヘ襲撃は、第一次世界大戦の終わりを早めるために役立ちました.
After the ceremony at St James’ Cemetery, the civic party and veterans will return to Dover Town Hall to ring the Zeebrugge Bell. この鐘は、ドーバーの戦没者の犠牲を讃えてベルギー国王から感謝の贈り物として贈られたものでした。, many of whom are buried in St James Cemetery.
