Just thought i would put a post up about the 65th anniversary of the D-DAY Landings! I went over to France for the 60th anniversary and had a great time there. Met a lot of veterans spending a fair few hours listening to their stories, and also keeping the small French towns pubs in profit lol I was amazed by some of the stories from these guys some being only 18 at the time!! Got me thinking would I have been brave enough to do the same- i like to think i would be!
I had planned on going over this time but it didn't work out! Nevertheless i'll be watching the d-day ceremony on tv, and at the same time thinking of those who never came home along with those who survived but had mental/physical scar.
So if you have some spare time watch bbc1 at 4.20pm or if not just take a minute to reflect on what happened all those years ago, and how we owe a debt of gratitude to the men and women who took part.
