June 6, 1944. Today, we mark the anniversary of D-Day and the Battle of Normandy. 14,000 Canadians stormed Juno Beach, showing unparalleled bravery in the face of fierce resistance. 359 Canadians made the ultimate sacrifice that day.

We stand in silent gratitude for the heroes who broke through the Atlantic Wall and paved the path to liberation.

Today, we pause to remember all those who served and sacrificed in defence of our nation.

We honour their courage, their service, and their legacy.

#Remembrance #LestWeForget 🌺

[Royal British Legion @PoppyLegion]

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning

We will remember them.

🧵The last surviving WW2 Victoria Cross recipient has died: John Alexander Cruickshank, a 24-year-old RAF pilot during WWII, received the Victoria Cross for an act of sheer bravery and determination in July 1944.

His story is one of survival, leadership, and refusing to give up when death seemed certain 👇

[Royal Canadian Navy @RoyalCanNavy]

Very few of the brave young Canadian men and women who stormed the beaches of Normandy 81 years ago are still with us to tell their stories. Today, we remember those who were part of the greatest seaborne invasion, in which our Navy played a significant role.

[The Royal Canadian Legion @RoyalCdnLegion]

Today, we mark the 81st anniversary of D-Day, and encourage all Canadians to take a moment to reflect on the sacrifices made by those who fought in the Battle of Normandy.

On this day in 1944, 150,000 Allied troops are loaded onto ships all across southern England. Tomorrow, they'll take part in history's greatest invasion.

“At that time, we didn't know it was D-Day," one veteran would later recall. "We just knew we had a job to do.”

The Day of Days approaches: on this night in 1944, in the final moments before heading to Normandy, 22nd Independent Company officers from 6th Airborne synchronise their watches. On the Left: Captain Robert de Lautour (possibly the first man to land, killed 20 June 1944) #DDay81

As we mark the Battle of Vimy Ridge, we honour the soldiers and artists who told their stories. 🎨 This painting by Richard Jack shows a gun crew in action as wounded soldiers pass by—a powerful tribute to sacrifice.

[Old Canada Series @oldcanadaseries]

108 years ago this morning Canadian forces, including many from Toronto, began the battle on Vimy Ridge. Over the following days the men would both perish in the thousands and defeat German forces.
