Islanders to mark anniversary of Jersey's freedom
People in Jersey are being encouraged to take part in a ceremony and other events next weekend to mark the island's Liberation Day.
The Channel Islands were under German occupation during most of World War II.
Next Sunday is the 65th anniversary of Jersey's liberation following five years of enemy occupation.
A ceremony and service in the Royal and Liberation Squares will be staged on Sunday morning and will be broadcast on a giant screen in Weighbridge Square.
In the afternoon there will be stalls selling food, drinks and crafts at the Weighbridge as well as entertainment from local musicians and choirs. (from BBC)
