A look at the British Normandy Memorial at Vers-sur-Mer, with the additional 'Standing with Giants' installation - 'For their tomorrow.' • From our base in Beyeux, as part of our 2024 Normandy road trip, we start by pulling into the British Normandy Memorial. We then take a walk along the path to the memorial, passing the story of the D-Day Landings and the battle to free Normandy. • After a walk around the British Normandy Memorial, we head to the 'For Their Tomorrow' installation, walking between the 1,475 silhouettes representing those who died on D-Day as we overlooked Gold Beach. • Returning to the top, we passed the waymarkers for Utah, Omaha, Juno, and Sword beaches before wrapping up our visit. • Thanks so much for watching, and we'd love to hear from you so please leave a comment and don't forget to subscribe so you don't miss any of our travels: 🟢- • http://ow.ly/ipl450zIttc • ⏱️Timestamps⏱️ • 00:00 - The intro to the British Normandy Memorial • 00:10 - Where is the British Normandy Memorial, and how to get there • 00:48 - Driving into the British Normandy Memorial • 01:09 - The path to the British Normandy Memorial • 02:33 - Arriving at the centre of the memorial • 04:01 - Stepping through the memorial wall • 04:38 - The view over Gold Beach from the British Normandy Memorial • 05:43 - The memorial to the French • 05:59 - Discovering 'For your Tomorrow' • 06:02 - And walking through Standing with Giants • 08:00 - Meeting the other heroes • 08:28 - Discovering the D-Day Landing Beaches • 🛌 Where we stayed in Bayeux; • The Hôtel d'Argouges 🔗 - https://bit.ly/46iQS0g • 🚗 Need a car? • Check out our Rental Cars link 🔗 https://bit.ly/37obdHk • ℹ Places we mentioned or should have • The British Normandy Memorial - 🔗 https://www.britishnormandymemorial.org/ • The Commonwealth War Graves Commission - 🔗https://www.cwgc.org/ • Standing with Giants - 🔗https://www.standingwithgiants.co.uk/... • Visit Normandy - 🔗 https://en.normandie-tourisme.fr/ • • 📝 For more information, check out our post 'Visiting the British Normandy Memorial, Ver-sur-Mer, France ' 📝 • 🔗 https://www.ourworldforyou.com/visiti... • 🎬 You may also be interested in our video on 'Our day remembering the Normandy D-Day Landings' • 🔗 • Our day remembering the Normandy D-Da... • 👫 - Stay Social ----------------------------------------------------------------------- • 📌 Facebook: / ourworldforyou • 📌 Twitter: / ourworldforyou • 📌 Instagram: / ourworldforyou • 📌 Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.co.uk/OurWorldf...
