Living local to the site where the ill-fated Exercise Tiger took place I have long been interested in the story of D-Day & Operation Overlord. It was in 2006 that our family holiday took us to Normandy, France and I could not pass up the chance to visit the area that was supposed to resemble the little part of Devon that is Slapton Sands.
With humble recognition to Steven Spielberg and the fantastic music of John Williams this is my tribute to those that paid the ultimate price for everything we now hold so dear.
