D-Day 80 Memorial

This is a special place for you to share memories and photos of your loved ones who were involved in D-Day - and the wider war effort.

“…the spirit of the people, resolute, dedicated, burned like a bright flame, lit surely from those unseen fires which nothing can quench.”  King George VI, 6 June 1944 (D-Day)

So much talk about D-Day brings us even closer to the realisation of just how brave and courageous you were Dad. Hero is a well used word but you will always be a hero and legend to us being in the beaches as a RN Commando at H-1. We only learned what you got up to very late in your life - prior to that you only told us your funny stories of your Navy days. You will always be loved and missed and never more than a thought away ❤️

My wonderful Dad, Albert Allen
