The "Daily Mirror" for today, 1st June, includes a free copy of the edition of the paper that announced D.Day, 7th June 1944 - think about it. This paper is also running some articles about D.Day all week. I have not read any of them, but was put off by the illustrated photo of an infantryman that I saw in the newsagents in yesterdays paper - gas mask labelled as small pack, and this was one of the chest gas mask bags too!

As is the "Daily Mail". Yesterday it had the 7th June 1944 edition, today had the 8th June 1944 edition, tomorrow will be the 9th June 1944 edition...and so on for the rest of the week. Makes fascinating reading. B.
