FOR the first time since the Covid-19 pandemic started, Allied veterans, their families and other visitors will gather to commemorate the 78th anniversary of D-Day.
The largest seaborne invasion in history and one of the most pivotal events of the Second World War, D-Day saw almost 160,000 Allied troops land in Normandy on 6 June, 1944, and would eventually lead to the liberation of France, victory in Europe and the defeat of Nazi Germany less than a year later.
