We arrived in Longueval just in time for the service after missing the 5am ferry from Dover to Calais. The NZ memorial was easily found and there were plenty of Gendarme to point us in the right direction. |

At the service for the Unknown Warrior, servicemen from all three branches of the NZ Armed Forces were represented, as well as the Chief of Defence Force, the Ambassador to France, the High Commissioner to England and RSA representatives. The service was moving and we thoroughly enjoyed the reception following at the Mayor's office where we drank lots of Kiwi beer and ate French pastries. After a very long day, we are pleased we made the effort to be part of this event. |
