To commemorate the 80th anniversary of D-Day, Angus attended a special event at the Green Howards Museum. They started at the regimental war memorial in Richmond (Yorkshire) at 6.30 a.m., which was when the Green Howards landed on Gold Beach. The day was packed with discussion about the regiment and their role on D-Day. It closed with them having the privilege of getting up close to the only Victoria Cross, which was won on June 6th. 

Angus is joined by Steve Erskine from the Green Howards Museum and Paul Cheall (from The Fighting Through Podcast), whose father landed on Gold Beach with Stan Hollis, who received the Victoria Cross for his deed that day.

In theory, they sat down in the museum on June 5th to discuss what D-Day meant to us. In practice, they had a rather wide-ranging discussion.
