About 3000 Australians were involved in D-Day and the Normandy landings, with Australia's main contribution offering support in the air.

I was living in Southsea back in 94 when they had the 50th anniversary . Many more veterans in those days obviously . They did the fallen and surviving heroes proud then , but i think it was surpassed by this years commemorations .

I didn't realize that among all the WWII allies, there were more Russian and Chinese killed during the global hostilities than all other allied nations combined. But Putin and Xi Jinping weren't invited.
Funny to see the German flag up there, fluttering away along with the rest.
Oh yes, and frau Merkel of course.
