Thought I'd share this picture today, taken at Arromanches when we were there in June.
I kept thinking "But for their sacrifice, we would not have the freedom to walk on this beach, to make sandcastles with our children, to savour this beautiful, blue sky".
Many of those were Irish, even though our official position was "neutral"; these men had joined the British Army, and helped in the fight for freedom.
I thank them for the ultimate sacrifice- they gave their lives for us.
