On the 6 June 1944, the 7th Battalion, Parachute Regiment, of the 6th Airborne Division, landed in Normandy, France, as part of the Allied invasion codenamed Operation Overlord. Among the men in the Battalion was Private John Mortimore, who on the morning of D-Day demonstrated extraordinary courage to save the lives of his colleagues. However, although his actions warranted the awarding of a Victoria Cross, he was never officially recognised for his heroism as there was no Officer present at the time to make a recommendation.

This video is dedicated to the memory of Private John Mortimore.
