On this day 78 years ago, 156,000 soldiers landed in Normandy to liberate France during WWII.
Every year, French soldiers take sand from Omaha Beach and rub it onto the gravestones to give the letters a gold coloring.
They do this for all 9,386 American soldiers buried there.

Thanks Carol, that’s lovely to hear. We *really* enjoyed our day & were just discussing over dinner how wonderful your students (and you!) were. We hope we can work with you & @UnityBlackpool again! #WW1 #History #Learning #KS4 #AQA #Edexcel #FWW
We had a wonderful day in school with @FrontlineLH today. Such knowledgeable, engaging gents who I can highly recommend. Students did detours past my room at the end of the day to tell me how much they enjoyed it. Thanks for making today so enjoyable.

Archibald McIndoe encouraged East Grinstead residents to be welcoming & pay little attention to his patients' injuries. They surpassed all expectations. To this day it is known proudly as ‘the town that didn’t stare’.
