In this episode we travel along Juno and Gold Beaches and tell the story of the landings through the eyes of the soldiers who were there. We hear from Bill Dunn whose tank “Charlie One” still sits close to the location where it broke down on Juno Beach. We find out what happened to his mates that day and how they sang to keep their spirits up as the German mortars rained down on them. We go to the British Normandy Memorial and see the “Standing with the Giants” exhibition and tell the story of the 2 nurses who saved 75 lives before perishing beneath the waves on the stricken hospital ship SS Amsterdam. We also visit Arromanches and talk about the Mulberry Harbour and I remember my old friend Harry Austin who landed on Gold Beach on his 19th birthday.
