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)

Grandad took LBV 181, part of 20th LBV Flotilla sailing from Poole. He made two landings on US Utah beach. He told us that he carried fuel and ammunition. He returned. We were so lucky to have had him as our grandfather.
