D-Day remembered in the North West
Hundreds of D-Day veterans are in Normandy today for a series of events marking the 70th anniversary of the greatest military invasion in history.
Full report: D-Day veteran recalls Normandy landing
Harry Evans was among tens of thousands of soldiers who landed on Sword Beach at Normandy 70 years ago. One week later, he was hit by a sniper.
He describes being 'frightened to death' following the attack by enemy forces. And Harry, now 90, still holds a precious memento from that very day.
