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)

6th Airborne- Sword Beach Dad carried this prayer with him. He could never talk of the atrocities he and his comrades endured. I volunteer with cadets now in his memory. I travelled to Normandy with Tri service cadets for the 65th anniversary. Such an emotional experience for us all. Lest we forget those who endured.
