Moment 9 WW2 heroes mark 81st anniversary of D-Day with emotional trip to Normandy
The veterans describe some of the horrific things they witnessed on D-Day THE LAST OF THE VALIANT THE LAST OF THE VALIANT Moment 9 WW2 heroes mark 81st anniversary of D-Day with emotional trip to Normandy Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) FOUR World War Two heroes flew by private jet to France yesterday to mark the 81st anniversary of D-Day. They joined five other veterans who were well enough to attend a moving service at the British Normandy Memorial.

Yesterday, The Sun was given exclusive access to fly with a quartet of veterans — all of them aged 99 and over — on a sleek 50-seat Embraer jet from Warton Aerodrome, Lancs. Among them were Sergeant Richard Brock, now 101, and Able Seaman Ken Benbow, who turns 100 next week. They were both at Normandy on June 6, 1944. Ken was off the north French coast on HMS Crane, and saw men die in the water all around him. Richard, a driver with the East Lancashire Regiment, came ashore with 130 comrades — only 19 returned home. He was honoured to pay tribute to the fallen yesterday. The retired master butcher, from Lancaster, said: 'When I landed on the beach just below where the Normandy Memorial stands now I was a young man of 20 who thought every day might be my last. 'I cannot believe here I am at 101. The heroes are the ones who died, some of them in terrible circumstances. "We are just their spokesmen. Hopefully we will be able to come here one more time.' Iconic RAF Red Arrows jets in danger of being replaced by Russian planes loved by Putin in move slammed as 'unthinkable' The jet was provided by BAE Systems, which employs 12,000 people in Preston. Also on board the flight to Caen Airport were former Fleet Air Arm Petty Officer George Boothby, 100, and Marjorie Hanson, 102. She, like the late Queen Elizabeth II, served in the Auxiliary Territorial Service and helped supply the D-Day landings. The nine veterans were joined by Defence Secretary John Healey for an emotional ceremony at the memorial, inscribed with the names of more than 4,000 soldiers under UK command who were killed on D-Day. Mr Healey listened in awe to the veterans' stories. He later told The Sun at the Bayeux War Cemetery: 'The lesson to draw from the Second World War is never again can we contemplate the huge human and economic cost that it inflicted. "We see that in the darkest, strongest terms in these cemeteries. 'What it says to me is that with the allies that we forged in the Second World War, we must band together and we must be strong enough to deter any adversary, any aggression that might be directed at us in the future.' 5 Among the heroes were Sergeant Richard Brock, now 101, and Marjorie Hanson, 102, who served in the Auxiliary Territorial Service Credit: Arthur Edwards / The Sun

The top 10 ways dads show love from doing DIY, to paying dinner bills and sending an iconic emoji
Scroll down to find out other ways dads show affection DAD-ICATED LOVE The top 10 ways dads show love from doing DIY, to paying dinner bills and sending an iconic emoji Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Dads prefer to show their affection by paying for meals, fixing things around the house – and the thumbs-up emoji. A poll of 2,000 adults revealed 49 per cent reckon their dad would describe himself as 'not good at emotional stuff'. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 DIY ranks among the top ways dads show affection Credit: Alamy Instead, lending tools, helping with house moves, and checking the tyres and oil in cars were other ways dads show their affection. It also emerged 35 per cent don't think their father is good at dealing with emotions – with 14 per cent claiming they have never hugged their father. A spokesperson from Funky Pigeon, which has created a quiz where you can test how fluent you are in 'Dad Speak' and commissioned the research, said: 'Sometimes it can be hard to show real emotion. 'For many of us, our dads grew up in a world where expressing emotion wasn't always encouraged - where a pat on the back might've stood in for 'I love you', and a raised eyebrow counted as a heartfelt pep talk. Read more News SPOT IT The 4 signs of skin cancer that aren't moles after Natasha Hamilton's diagnosis 'Times are changing, and while some dads still find it hard to open up, we're seeing more and more moments where that emotional armour slips - a quiet tear at a wedding, a thumbs-up that means the world. 'These gestures might be subtle, but they speak volumes.' The study also revealed 19 per cent of those polled have never told their father they love them – and the same percentage have never had a text exchange with their old man. Nearly three in 10 (29 per cent) have also never heard their dad day 'I love you' to them, although women are slightly more likely to hear it than men. Another 29 per cent would find it emotional if their dad said, out of the blue, he was proud of them, according to the data. But some of the most common phrases people do hear from their dad included 'You'll be alright', 'Need anything?' and 'Keep going'. It also emerged 51 per cent believe their father is not particularly affectionate physically, if at all. However, it's not a one-way street, as 25 per cent never ask their dad about his feelings, with 49 per cent rarely or never indulging in a proper heart to heart with him. Home Bargains launches Father's Day gifts in store & there's a £5.99 present shoppers are already snapping up A third went on to describe their father's texting style as 'brief', while nine per cent find them littered with emojis. Funky Pigeon's spokesperson added: 'We often joke about the 'dad grunt' — that universal sound that somehow covers everything from 'I'm proud of you' to 'don't forget your coat'. 'But behind the jokes is a real truth: dads feel just as much as anyone else, even if they don't always have the words to say it. 'There's something incredibly moving about seeing a dad trying to express what's in his heart, especially if it doesn't come naturally. 'Whether it's awkward hugs, long silences, or carefully chosen words, those small moments of effort are often the most meaningful of all.'

Ancient 5000-year-old tomb on scenic Scottish island set to reopen to the public
The tomb, known as Isbister Chambered Cairn, dates to 3200 BC and was used for 800 years but has been closed since the Covid pandemic After being closed since the Covid pandemic, one of Orkney's most fascinating ancient landmarks is set to reopen to the public thanks to a major funding boost. The Tomb of the Eagles, a Neolithic chambered cairn perched on the dramatic cliffs of South Ronaldsay, is often described as a 'jewel in the crown' of Scotland's rich archaeological heritage. Thought to be around 5,000 years old, the tomb has yielded an extraordinary collection of finds since it was discovered by local farmer Ronald Simison in the 1950s. Around 16,000 human bones from at least 324 individuals were found inside, along with talons and bones from white-tailed sea eagles, giving the site its distinctive name. Later research revealed the eagle remains were placed in the tomb up to 1,000 years after the human burials, suggesting the cairn continued to hold ritual significance for centuries. Analysis of the bones revealed a mix of health and hardship. The people buried there were believed to have lived active, robust lives, but roughly one in five showed signs of violent injuries, likely caused by wooden clubs or stone axes. The tomb, also known as the Isbister Chambered Cairn, dates back to around 3200 BC and was used for burials over a period of 800 years. Visitors previously accessed the site through a low three-metre tunnel, but it has been closed since the Covid pandemic. Now, the community's efforts to bring it back to life have taken a huge leap forward. The South Ronaldsay and Burray Development Trust has secured more than £100,000 in National Lottery funding, just weeks after a separate grant from the Scottish Land Fund. Ruth Owen, chair of the trust, said: 'We are delighted at the award of just over £100,000 to the Development Trust for the purposes of reopening the Tomb of the Eagles. "Not only does this provide essential funding that will bridge the final budget gap required to acquire the site, but importantly it provides the necessary match funding to set up staffing next year, for our first full season. 'This really is the final piece of the funding jigsaw to acquire and re-establish the site, and we can now say with confidence that the Tomb of the Eagles will reopen to the public.

"We would like to thank the National Lottery players and indeed all our funding partners for giving the community this opportunity.' The site has remained in the care of the Simison family, who have worked alongside the trust to realise the vision of community-led ownership and reopening. Freda Norquay of the Simison Partnership added: 'We are so pleased that the Tomb will now reopen and forge its future under community ownership and feel that this is a fitting reflection of the Simison legacy. "It is a way forward that we fully support, and we believe that our parents, Ronnie and Morgan Simison, would have endorsed.'
