The grappling iron used at the St George’s Day raid at Zeebrugge in 1918 is preserved in the People of Dover’s War Memorial Garden.
Dover Town Council will remember the 98-oji Anniversary of the Dover Patrol’s heroic and historic raid on Zeebrugge on St George’s Day 1918 on Saturday 23rd Balandis 2016. Beginning with a service at 10.45 am in St James’ Cemetery, the commemorations will finish with the ringing of The Zeebrugge Bell at Dover Town Hall.
Šv. Jurgio dienos reidas Zeebrugge kurmiui buvo labiausiai įkvepiantis epizodas per pastarąją Britanijos ir Belgijos istoriją. Nepaisant baisaus gyvybės praradimo, Zeebrugge reidas padėjo paspartinti Pirmojo pasaulinio karo pabaigą.
After the ceremony at St James’ Cemetery, the civic party and veterans will return to Dover Town Hall to ring the Zeebrugge Bell. Varpas buvo Belgijos karaliaus padėkos dovana už Doverio žuvusiųjų auką., many of whom are buried in St James Cemetery. As in previous years, residents of Dover and other members of the public are welcome to observe the commemorations, in particular the ringing of the Zeebrugge Bell at noon.
Following the commemorations, please join us for a free concert, in the Connaught Hall of the Town Hall, Biggin Gatvė, Doveris, being conducted by the Royal Scout Harmony (Band) of Zeebrugge, commencing at 1pm.
