I love our veterans, you could just sit in a pub with a beer and listen to their stories for hours.
God bless all of the Normandy Veterans. Thank you all for your service .
At the going down of the sun, we Will Remember Them...
Thank you & God bless all our veterans past & present. Please capture our remaining veterans stories in their words so we can learn & live in peace forever.
What sorcery is Ken Perppercorn using to still be in such good condition at 100 years of age?
Jaw droppingly young looking !
Bob Gamble....My old rugby coach from 2RTR !! Nicest guy you could ever meet!
Great stuff
Well done old soldiers, well done. And now for something completely different, it amazes me how often a media production about the D-Day landings, how often the images from Operation Jubilee, the Canadian Dieppe raid, is used to illustrate the landings.
Most of the media are idiots.
Ken Peppercorn doesn't look a day over 80. Kick on!
Stan Hollis VC, soul will still be advancing up that beach RIP 🇬🇧 Quite disgusting how long it has taken for a commemorative statue being there.
Waaaao Great 👏👏👏🤗😙
I recently heard a surviving veteran say that they were not heroes, the ones who died were the real heroes. May I respectfully disagree. Every one of those involved were and remain heroes, the fallen and the survivors alike.
I knew a couple of British soldiers, sadly no longer with us, that took part in the D-Day landings. Such great and humble men. R.I.P.
I was at St George’s Hall in Liverpool on Monday to remember this🇬🇧🇺🇸🇨🇦 their memory lives on
We thank you. We are sorry for the state we made the world after Your sacrifice
So much Thanks to the courageous men and women back then, we can live in freedom now! ❤️
Thank you for your service and sacrifice ❤️
My heart goes out to all Allied soldiers who fought on D-day and countless other battle across the second world war. I will always remember those such as my great grandfather William Saint and great uncle Ernest Saint who fought for the UK.
The Brits build a new memorial for the greatest generation ever and joe bidumb completely forgot about D-Day......
Well, he has some problems to solve after the great military hero in his position before him created them.
@@Braun30 Oh, you mean jacking up the price of gasoline, inflation and the hordes at the border? Moron.
@@Braun30 sorry what? Trump ended the wars in the middle east. In bidens first month of office he called putin an evil dictator, and created relations with russia which are as bad as they were in the cold war. But go on
@@catherinelw9365 that's all that is important in the US, cheap fuel for the cars.
@@aaroncousins4750 Trump did not end wars, he grovelled in front of Putin, was swindled by Kim and taken for a ride by Xi.
Very friendly like the bloke people like because he pays the drinks for all but gets no respect.
cool
My Grandad watched the longest day film and promptly stated he was there for the rehearsal. His war record clocks him in on the 060644 for duty. literally on the day. He lived out the war but stayed a reservist and went back full time during the Korean war. He was a driver engineer and while evacuating soldiers from the nimjim river his vehicle became over run by Korean and Chinese. They climbed all over the vehicles moving or not. To which my Grandad responded by driving his APC through a building and cleaned them all off. "Dont worry lads I ve got this".
To free the French. And look how they are behaving to day. To the UK. I'm sorry for your commrades . Who never made it bk.
You have to remember that a lot of french wanted the germans and were willing to help them and work for them without a second thought for the ones who did not want there nation swallowed up into the 3rd Reich.
👏👏👏
👏👏👏
A welcome sight.... no disrespect, but it's unfortunate it took so long to build it.
Some french politicians should watch this…
I am eternally humbled buy the travails of the whole generation that withstood such a terrible onslaught and turned the tide back. My undying thanks and respect are ever yours.
it should have been commemorate as normal
Let's forget all the Norman's did to us on behalf of those who funded there invasion (the longnose tribe from septamania whose religion we all know follow) and forsake our Germanic cousins in blood, where has this got the English peoples who once ruled this island and had their own nation called England?
You cannot possibly be this pressed about something that is so ancient at this point.
Dapat lang po na laging aalalahanin ang mga sakripisyo ng mga taong lumaban at namatay ng dahil sa digmaan,para malaman ng bagong henerasyon ang napakahirap na kalagayan ng mundo sa panahon ng gera..Sana po ay huwag ng maulit ang gera na yan,kasi po ay siguradong mauubos ang mga tao dahil masyado high tech ang mga kagamitan ngayon..pati ilalim ng lupa ay nakikita nila...wala ng pagtataguan ang mga tao.. masyadong mapinsala ang mga sandata ngayon
Thank you for your service gentleman.
