The Unveiling of a Heroic Tribute - Honoring the Green Howards' Role in WWII
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we witness a momentous occasion as a new memorial is unveiled to commemorate the brave soldiers of the Green Howards and their significant contribution during World War II. The sculptor James Butler RA has masterfully crafted a figure representing one of the valiant soldiers from either the 6th or 7th Battalion of the Green Howards. This particular soldier had traversed through treacherous battles before reaching D-Day, having served at Dunkirk, in the scorching Western Desert, and on war-torn Sicily. His unwavering dedication and resilience symbolize the indomitable spirit that defined these heroic infantrymen. The unveiling ceremony took place in Crepon, France on October 26th, 1996. A solemn parade was held to honor those who fought selflessly for freedom's cause. Among them stood Stanley Hollis, an esteemed member of the regiment whose exceptional bravery earned him recognition with Britain's only Victoria Cross awarded on D-Day. As this poignant photograph captures this historic event from Memory Lane Prints, it serves as a powerful reminder of sacrifice and valor exhibited by these gallant warriors. Their unwavering commitment to protecting our freedoms will forever be etched into history through this magnificent memorial.
