Re: The 51st Country Dance (Laufen Reel), also known as St Valery' s Reel

I've never heard this dance called "Laufen Reel" or "St. Valery's
Reel." The original choreographers were probably held at Oflag VII-C,
a POW camp for officers, at Laufen, Bavaria, following the debacle at
St. Valery-en-Caux in 1940.
