Juno Beach Centre at Courseulles-sur-Mer The Juno Beach Centre was paid for by returning Canadian Veterans after finding no memorial to their efforts during the landings. It charts the involvement of the Canadians since the beginning of the war.

In the town centre there is a Sherman Duplex Drive (DD) Tank which stands as a memorial to those involved in attacking Juno Beach. It was raised from the seabed 27 years after the invasion. Considering its long years in salt water, it has been well restored and is in good condition.

Churchill Tank Memorial at Graye-sur-Mere This Churchill tank stands near the liberation monument at Graye-sur-mere, just in the dunes behind Juno Beach. Here I am making an appearance with "Jessie" beside the Churchill.
