78th D-Day anniversary

This is no longer worth reporting in the press. The role of the British paratroopers is still fascinating, however, and generations of Britons have grown up with the stories of men like Terence Otway (of Merville Battery fame). I first came into contact with the stories at Hardwick Hall, which was one of the first places where the Paras were trained. There was a story that the wife of their commander, Major-General Frederick Browning, recommended the colour of the beret because it was also the colour of his riding stable. Whether it is true . . .? I don't know, but his wife was Daphne de Maurier, and I wouldn't put it past her.

    Sehr schön aufgenommen! Es liegt halt ein großes Stück Geschichte auf dem Barett. Geschichte die sich hoffentlich nicht in einer anderen Form jetzt wiederholt. Man hat eigentlich gedacht das die Menschen aus dieser Zeit gelernt haben. Hinter diesem Barett liegen halt der Kampf um die Freiheit und die Demokratie. Schön wenn dieses Opfer nicht ganz vergessen wird.Lg André Schickore
