This Thursday marks the 80th anniversary of D-Day, the Allied invasion of Normandy in World War II. It's also been 75 years since Father Raymond Hickey published his account of the battle, Scarlet Dawn. The cover of the book shows the regiment arriving on the beach...and it was painted by a Bathurst artist, Roger Hennessy. It's that history that's inspiring an art exhibit this summer.
