It is with great sadness we announce the passing of John ‘Paddy’ Hemingway DFC – Last of ‘The Few’. We reflect not only on his sacrifices, but the sacrifices of all those who served & fought in WWII. Paddy, thank you for your service. Per Ardua ad Astra raf.mod.uk/news/articles/…

The new low energy LED lighting for the Menin Gate is being installed tonight. This spectacular architectural lighting is the final flourish of the two year long restoration project at the Menin Gate in Ieper.

A grand send off for the veterans of Normandy with the Commonwealth War Graves Torch For Peace playing a central role over the next few days of commemorations.

A privilege to be traveling to Normandy with these remarkable gentlemen and to be working with a brilliant Commonwealth War Graves team on the ground and back at base.

As we arrived into French waters a special ceremony was held with Brittany Ferries staff and Normandy Veterans. A wreath was cast into the sea and all on board joined in a moment of reflection.

Your 60 second (ish) cemetery chat of Beny-Sur-Met Canadian War Cemetery, Normandy, France. This video does not do the flowers justice! 🌹🌹🌹

“To us is given the honour of striking a blow for freedom which will live in history and in the better days that lie ahead men will speak with pride of our doings” General Sir Bernard Montgomery, 81 years ago.

Inspired by Max Dutton, here’s my 60 second (ish) explainer on a historic location within The Royal Parks’s Bushy Park which played a big role in #DDay. #DDay81

Your 60 seconds (ish) from Commonwealth War Graves St. Manvieu War Cemetery, Normandy, France. One to add to your list of “must visit” I think. 🌹🌷🪻

Your 60 seconds (ish) from Fontenay-le-Pesnel British War Cemetery, Normandy. I love the drive down the field track to this cemetery, it builds anticipation so well, and the wonderful but subtle architecture here is a beautiful tribute. Have you been? Will you be visiting? 🚙

Your 60 seconds (ish) cemetery chat from Commonwealth War Graves Jerusalem War Cemetery, Normandy, France. The smallest? And the youngest? Certainly a special place.
