Operation Overlord

"Under the command of General Eisenhower, Allied navel forces supported by strong air forces, began landing Allied armies on the northern coast of France."
(First Overlord communique, 6 June 1944)

These poppies are growing in the garden of the office where I work - I photographed them earlier in the week when the sun was shining on them.
I thought it appropriate for them to be my blip today - the 70 anniversary of the D-Day landings.

This is a lovely song from that era.
