Irish-Canadian, friend of Brittany and passionate about its history and particularly the [[Operation Chariot]], James Dorrian came to almost all the commemorations in Saint-Nazaire. He wrote a book in English with many previously unpublished testimonies and vintage photos: Saint-Nazaire, Operation Chariot - 1942 (Pen & Sword Books, 2006, collection Battleground Europe). He is also partner in the production of a documentary film about [[[Micky Burn]]]'s (1) life, a hero of the [[Operation Chariot]] also known as [[[St Nazaire Raid]]] (voir notre article)


He sent this message to ABP:

I wish you well with the protest, and hope it is very well attended: also that the weather is kind to you all...

In the UK it is now government policy to embrace diversity. What a pity France cannot see the sense in preserving the old cultures.

All the best,

Jim


"I am Irish-Canadian, though currently resident in England. Born in Belfast, Northern Ireland, in 1946, I graduated from Trinity College, Dublin, before marrying Sandie and moving to the London area, in 1968", he writes on his website (voir le site)


(1) Micky Burn died in september2010, aged 97. (voir notre article)
