ATTENTION 55TH AIB MEN!
To celebrate the 60th Anniversary of the 55th AIB's encampment and training in England in the Fall of 1944, I have organized a 10-day tour of Wiltshire and London for the men of the battalion and their families on September 7-16, 2004. The tour is hosted by Valor Tours, Ltd. of Sausalito, CA -- the provider of the 55th AIB's memorable tours to Belgium/Luxembourg and Germany/Austria in 2000. In conjunction with the tour, a plaque will be dedicated in Tisbury (the 55th AIB's HQ in Wiltshire) to the men of the battalion.
For more information on the England tour, contact Valor Tours at (800) 842-4504, or at info@valortours.com. For more information on the plaque, contact me at a55aib@yahoo.com.

To cut a long story short I am trying to contact 11 th Amoured Veterans who my have trained on the rifle range at Fovant. The buildings are still standing covered with names where they cme from of service men who probablyset up the targets. Also any pictures of US Servicemen in this area.
