Dover Town Council will remember the 104тата Годишнина от героичния и исторически набег на Dover Patrol над Зебрюге на Деня на Свети Георги 1918 on Saturday 23тата Април 2022.
There will be one service, inclusive of 2-minute silence and wreath laying, to be held at 12 midday at the People of Dover’s War Memorial, Biggin Стрийт, Dover. The Town Mayor of Dover, Cllr Gordon Cowan will begin the commemorations by sounding 8 rings on the Zeebrugge Bell, which is located at the nearby Dover Town Hall. The Bell was a gift of thanks from the King of Belgium in recognition of the sacrifice of British servicemen, many of whom are buried in St James Cemetery.
Св. Набегът на Георгиев ден върху къртицата Зебрюге беше най-вдъхновяващият епизод от близката британска и белгийска история. Въпреки ужасната загуба на живот, набегът на Зебрюге помогна да се ускори края на Първата световна война.
As in previous years, residents of Dover and other members of the public are very welcome to attend.
