We’ve been to Normandy several times and had the privilege of spending a full afternoon with this gentleman and his wife.
His name was Patrick Churchill , unfortunately he’s no longer with us .
This was on the 75th anniversary where he was doing an interview , it was fascinating listening to his story , not just his DDay landing but his whole life.
We hung on to his every word and when he had to leave he thanked us for our company !
We returned to Arromanches last year and throughout Normandy they put pictures of the veterans on practically every lampost , who should be on the lampost outside our house but Patrick , what are the odds of that happening he was definitely letting us know he was there. Met a few of the veterans and they are the most humbling people you can ever meet , everyone a hero.
Google Patrick Churchill the man was immense .
