Garff Commissioners looking for stories of residents who fought in the D-Day landings

Garff Commissioners want to hear from residents who could have D-Day connections.

This year marks the 80th anniversary of the landings in northern France and the local authority hopes some people may have friends or relatives who were in the Manx regiment on the battlefield.

It's also looking for stories about people who worked in munitions factories, logistics or support roles leading up to the day.

The commissioners say it will display the information in the appropriate way in June.

Information can be passed on the local authority via email admin@garff.im or by telephone 861241.
