Another view of the D Day embarkation ramps which were used by the American army in 1945. They have been refurbished of late and the Stars & Stripes now flies permanently alongside them in recognition of the role they had in WWII.

9th - Embarkation Ramps
The Bay Princess leaving for a tour of the bay. In the background you can see Torquay's latest piece of modern art, a white ring circling the harbours edge. You can also see the grade II listed embarkation ramps, which were used during World War II by American troops heading for the D Day Normandy landings.
