PM is marking the 75th anniversary of D-Day, June 6th 1944, by hearing experiences of the Normandy landings. At the start of Operation Overlord, the Allies landed over 156,00 troops in Normandy. Within the next 10 days, half a million troops were ashore and amongst them was 18-year-old tank driver, John Graves. John is now 93, and will be in France to mark the D-Day anniversary. Before he went, he shared his memories with PM’s Emma Jane Kirby. (Photo: John Graves, a British tank driver with the Scots Guards Credit: John Graves)
