In a bid to honour and commemorate the 80th anniversary of the historic Normandy Landings, the Ministry of Defence has announced its collaboration with veterans’ charities and memorials. The significant event, which will take place on 6 June 2024, will place veterans of the Normandy campaign at the heart of the official commemorations.
Veterans who took part in the Normandy Landings are encouraged to register their interest in attending the events by contacting the Royal British Legion. This unique opportunity will allow them to be an integral part of the commemorative activities, as communities come together to pay tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice during the operation.
