This will be the last time they will be attending anything like this again.</P><P>Listening to all their stories is heart wrenching. So many lost and dead from the Normandy landings 80 years ago.</P><P>They gave their lives so we could have ours. <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":red_heart:">❤️</span></P><P>&nbsp;</P> Thu, 06 Jun 2024 12:57:00 GMT https://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Off-Topic/On-The-80th-Anniversary/m-p/1722542#M296949 Cleoriff 2024-06-06T12:57:00Z https://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Off-Topic/On-The-80th-Anniversary/m-p/1722891#M297023 <P>Yes, it is all very sad.
