Mentioning the red fish makes it pretty clear that he is talking about Alizée. However, I agree with you that the location is suspect. Then again, you never know. Often these types of activities are not advertised. She would have been 18 at the time, a perfect age to go see the troops, so who knows.
What is interesting is that he said that there were several different patches made by various groups. Perhaps another patch will turn up.
