Hi,
Below is the program performed by the massed pipe bands of the 51st Highland Division when it re-occupied St. Valery-en-Caux in September, 1944. St. Valery was where the original 51st Division surrendered to German forces in 1940. The bands involved were those of the 1st, 5th, and 7th Black Watch, 2nd and 5th Seaforths, 1st and 5th/7th Gordons, 5th Camerons, and 7th Argylls.
I tried to load a copy of the original program but it wouldn't print clearly.
