The 79th anniversary of the sinking of H.M.T. Bedf

The 79th anniversary of the sinking of H.M.T. Bedfordshire is this week. Four of the sailors killed in the attack are buried on Ocracoke
When I was in school we learned World War II was "over there, over there" in Europe. Imagine my surprise when I moved to the coast of North Carolina and found out WW II took place right off the coast of Ocracoke and the entire east coast. In most years Ocracoke and Buxton have ceremonies to commemorate the sinking of the Bedfordshire by German submarine U-558. Due to Covid-19 these ceremonies have been canceled for this year. The ceremony is solemn And beautiful ceremony attended by British Navy and Royal Canadian officers. Stop by the British Cemetery while you are on Ocracoke this week and give those brave sailors a minute of your time.
We have these books to give you lots more information. Stop in Books to be Red and take a look.

Ben, Gabrielle, and Emil are from NY and are enjoying stopping in independent bookstores along the way. Speaking for independent booksellers we thank you. They have shopped in Browseabout Books in Rehoboth Beach, Downtown Books in Manteo, Buxton Village Books in Buxton, and today in Books to be Red on Ocracoke! They received an Independent Bookstore Day bag as a prize for doing the unofficial bookstore crawl.
