4th – 8th June 2018 – Veterans to visit Normandy to remember the most memorable wartime operation ever planned

The 6th June 1944 is fixed in the memory of WWII veterans as the date of one of the most important wartime operations ever planned and executed. In June this year, twenty-five veterans will be visiting Normandy, courtesy of the Taxi Charity, to remember the part they played and the friends and comrades they lost seventy-four years ago.

In the week after their appearance on Britain’s Got Talent supporting The D Day Darlings on 28 May an amazing group of nonagenarians will be visiting the scene of The D Day Landings in Normandy.
