The parade wound along the waterfront to the public gardens where the memorial stands under a peak, atop which rests Fort De Roule. one Of the bastions taken by American troops less than three weeks ago.
 Proudly marching in the parade and no longer fearful of showing themselves, was q group of French resistance workers who fought the Nazis through the long years Of oc- cupation.
 It. Col. Prank HoEiey. Drexel Hill Pa, civil affairs officer, and the mayer of Cherbourg made brief speeches before the memorial.

 In the rest of liberated Normandy, smaller celebrations were held.
