EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print depicts the Cheshire Regiment Memorial, located at the Musee du Debarquement in Arromanches-les-Bains, Normandy, France. The memorial stands as a tribute to all the brave members of the Cheshire Regiment whose various battalions fought in different theatres of war during the 20th century. Among them, the 2nd Battalion played a significant role in the D-Day landings on June 6, 1944. The 2nd Battalion of the Cheshire Regiment was part of the 50th Northumbrian Division and landed on Gold Beach as part of the larger Allied invasion force. The D-Day landings marked the beginning of the end of World War II in Europe, and the sacrifices made by the soldiers of the Cheshire Regiment and other Allied forces were instrumental in securing victory. The memorial, with its solemn inscription and the regimental crest of the Cheshire Regiment, serves as a poignant reminder of the valor and bravery displayed by the soldiers of this esteemed regiment. The memorial's location at the Musee du Debarquement, a museum dedicated to the D-Day landings, adds to its historical significance and makes it a must-visit destination for history enthusiasts and those seeking to pay their respects to the fallen heroes of the Second World War.
