Twink - The BBC series The World At War is still probably the best and most thorough collection of first hand recollections available. It was first shown in 1973 but there has never been a better series.Re: 75 years since D Day

Just a couple of miles from where I live is the Silvan Memorial to the men of the Canadian third division who were camped here prior to their departure on D Day. It was at this spot where Padre Kieth Purdue conducted a service for them. In April 1944 he set up a pine cross on this spot. Today a sturdy oak cross stands on the same spot along with a Canadian National flag as a memorial to all those men who lost their lives in the Normandy landings.Thread Tools | |
