June 1944 - 71 years ago

Post by Keith Hewitt »

Yesterday I had the privilege to partner Lawrie Mackie in a game of golf. At 94 he still scored a few points
Then at lunchtime he was on ITV recounting how 71 years ago he was an officer on HMS LARGS - the ship that controlled the landings on Sword Beach. We all owe a great debt of gratitude to men like Lawrie for what they did when they were aged 18-24 years.

Lawrie appears at 30 seconds and again 1.56 - 2.15

I have visited distributors and framers in 90 countries - no two are the same.
