Description

The 51st Highlanders abandoned after Dunkirk,

For the history buffs: This vid is made up from pics generally around the period including pics from Dieppe etc, if anyone has pics from the time, please send them to me and I will upgrade the accuracy of this vid, otherwise I hope the story comes across stronger than the inaccuracies ie: the Panzer!, all this is about is... "Lest we forget"

Many fought the Totenkopf SS and Rommels armoured divisions keeping them away from the beaches, forced by the French generals to surrender... eight days after the last soldier was evacuated from Dunkirk... a whole generation of Highlanders was lost

This is a story buried in history, its time to tell it...
