Four British Royal Navy veterans have been awarded France’s highest honour, the Légion d’Honneur, for their service in helping to liberate France almost 75 years ago…
The French government awarded medals to Denis Haley, Charles Kavanagh, Patrick Reardon and John Nicholls, who all took part in the allied Normandy Landings, as a way of honouring them for risking their lives to secure France’s liberation in the Second World War.
