Описание: THIS video is an exclusive look into the life of 102-year-old, 2nd World War veteran, Harry Howorth, who served with the Kings Shropshire Light Infantry.

Harry Howorth, who is now 102 and still lives in Southport, Merseyside, was one of and first wave of British soldiers to take part in Operation Overlord, during World War II. In this video, you can hear what Harry did when he landed on Sword Beach near Hermanville, Normandy, shortly after 10am, on Tuesday, 6 June 1944, along with the rest of the 2nd Battalion of the King's Shropshire Light Infantry.

Codenamed Operation Neptune and often referred to as D-Day, this was the biggest seaborne invasion in history. The landings resulted in at least 10,000 Allied casualties, with 4,414 Allied personnel confirmed dead. Meanwhile, an estimated 4,000 to 9,000 Germans were killed, wounded or missing.

Our video also offers some unique glimpses through the words of Harry, into the local area's history and also his life, from childhood to going on combat operations, plus, his life after the war.

We are very grateful to Harry for taking time out to talk to us and shared his memories, just after his 102nd birthday, in July 2023.
