Eighty years ago, under the cover of darkness, thousands of brave soldiers stormed the beaches of Normandy facing unimaginable odds. Their efforts drastically changed the course of the Second World War, tipping the course of the War in the Allies' favour. Their sacrifices have forever indebted the nation.

The Wath Branch of the RBL are seeking to commemorate their sacrifices, as well as celebrate serving service personnel, ex-servicemen and -women and the fallen in all battles.
