Sorry for the late start. I?ve been driving through Normandy.
When was the last time we won our opening 2 league games in a season? Next week we could be asking when was the last time we won 3! And then there are cup games to win! I doubt we will go all season mind 😂
Football is as important as anything we take for granted because of these guys!
UNITED IN EFFORT
D-Day would not have been possible
without the courage and sacrifice of many people from the United Kingdom and its allies
who made ***** contributions to the success of the operation.
In the months and years before D-Day.
Allied personnel flew reconnaissance flights over France and made secret surveys of the French coast.
Secret agents operated behind enemy lines alongside the French Resistance.
And from early 1944, Allied air forces attacked targets to weaken the German defences.
Personnel from many other nations fought alongside and supported the British in Normandy:
they included men and women from Australia, Belgium, Canada, Czechoslovakia. Denmark, France, Greece, Ireland.
the Netherlands. New Zealand. Norway, Poland, South Africa and the United States of America. supporting the efforts of the military forces were millions of civilians
in factories and dockyards in the UK and further afield.
Many who lived through D-Day and the Battle of Normandy were forever marked by their experiences.
Some later died from wounds received during the campaign.
Others suffered at length from psychological trauma.
They all played their part. Many gave their lives.
