A dedication took place in 4 March 2023 at the grave of Richard Curle, organised by Monsieur Pascuali, President of the Château d'Oléron Veterans Association in association with the town hall on the island. A new plaque was unveiled on Richard's grave. M. Pascuali organised the tribute ceremony that took place on 4 March 2023, the 80th anniversary of the loss of the crew aboard Lancaster ED559. More images can be seen on this Facebook link. Unfortunately, I had not been informed of the event happening. My thanks to Luis Garrido for the information about the event.

I am once again indebted to Luis Garrido for the following images. He was visiting the gave of Richard and noticed a new memorial has been added. It's uncertain at this time who was responsible for this. There is a small coat of arms at the base but I currently do not know which organisation this represents. Hopefully, we'll find out more in the future. Lovely to see someone decided to add this to the grave.
