I remember the day well - I was only seven years old and lived on the
South coast on the English Channel. There was a regiment of Canadians
bivuoaced in the fields around us. That night the engines revved and
in the morning they had gone.....

During the day the sky was black with thousands and thousands of
aircraft - C47's towing gliders, bombers and fighters.

A day to remember

Thanks so very, very much John for that memory.

We owe them our deepest respect for what they did on what was perhaps the most
momentous day of the 20th century.
