D-Day 65th anniversary

Pictures of the Colleville-Montgomery ceremony

 

Bill Millin, the famous bagpipe player who landed on 6 June 1944 on t Sword Beach was present during these days of commemorations in Normandy. Immortalized by the movie The Longest Day, Bill has assisted to a bagpipes concert on 4 June 2009 at Colleville-Montgomery (in the presence of veterans and Robert Watt, piper world champion) and other ceremonies until June 6. Unfortunately he did not play the bagpipe during the concert but he said he was delighted to listen to the next generation of bagpipe players!
