FrontLine Tour Day 2: Ypres to Arras passing significant battle areas. Had a private visit to underground tunnels, not open to public, that troops would’ve been in 105 years ago today. Concluding with a candlelit ceremony at Houdain Lane Cemetery. Pics: facebook.com/14135870455674…

This morning at Anzio, I delivered a message from 101 year old Anzio veteran Harry Shindler OBE, much-loved in the town and who was not able to be there today. As Harry put it: ‘Now it is up to us to defend the freedom which was won with such great sacrifice.’ #Anzio1944
