This weekend @KenSkatesMS visited Caernarfon Castle to see a new display on the liberation of the Dutch city of ‘s-hertogenbosch by the 53rd (Welsh) Division in 1944.
It also shows the continuing relationship between the city, the 53rd and their families, after the War.

We're saddened to learn of the passing of John 'Paddy' Hemingway DFC, the last surviving fighter pilot of the #BattleOfBritain.
His legacy serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by the WW2 generation.
Our thoughts today are with his loved ones 💙

6 March 1917 Siegfried Sassoon writes ‘It was raining to-night. I went out about 10, leaving the bridge-playing officers in their smoky hut—oh such a dreary lot of people! The pine-trees stood up dark and peaceful, looming against the pale sky where the moon was hid by clouds.’
