[QUOTE ]Come and stand in memory
Of men who fought and died
They gave their lives in Normandy
Remember them with pride
Soldiers, Airman, sailors Airborne and marines
Who in civvy life were tailors
and men who worked machines
British and Canadian And men from USA
Forces from the Commonwealth
They all were there that day
To Juno, Sword and Utah Beaches of renown
Also Gold and Omaha
That’s where the ramps went down.
The battle raged in Normandy Many lives were lost
The war must end in victory
And this must be the cost
When my life is over And I reach the other side
I’ll meet my friends from Normandy
And shake their hands with pride.
