Great thread.

I envy all that live in Europe and the US. The battle sites and old relics that are still around. Not good during the war.

I have talked about a tour of some sites with friends. Very expensive coming from New Zealand but maybe one day.

Hell Im waiting for Phil Davies to stop going to watch the Welsh rugby team and get back into organising some battlefield trips for the Blitz.

If i could ever get my wife to let me go, i would love to go to North Africa and see some of the battle sites there.

I am reading a book on the North African campaign. Its called war at dawn and its a great read. All about the Torch landings.

I just wonder if they have alot of relics and battle sites still reasonable order?

I was in Tunisia a year ago. Not much to see there. The only great WWII site was the Mareth Line and Rommel's bunker there. Other than that, the Roman ruins are much more impressive. I brought "Army at Dawn" with me. It was more fun to read about Kasserine than it was to see it. There's nothing there except for a highway and some random villages. Tunisia itself, though is much worth seeing.

We thought about Libya, but everything worth seeing is geographically dispersed and the logistics were very difficult.
