Film & Recordings

James Holland presents an hour long documentary for the BBC covering the Normandy Landings on D-Day. Some fascinating insights.

D-Day – This two part recording was made by ITN on the 40th anniversary of D-day, 6th June 1944. It starts off with Major John Howard and his fellow Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry glider airborne troops re-telling their personal experiences on taking the Bénouville Bridge, later to become known as Pegasus Bridge in honour of the airborne troops whose Pegasus shoulder flash is the winged flying horse of Greek legend.
