How soon we forget
I felt it was entirely overlooked.
No media coverage.............not even a passing mention. Only place it was shown was on the cheap calendar in my office.
Shameful.
Keep your eyes and ears open on 6th June, and see the same thing happen.
We should be bloody grateful there even WAS a VE Day. Try asking a school kid what VE means and see what answer you get. Mind you, I remember when we commemorated 'VJ' Day, now it's "VP".
I have 2 dear old friends who were British Army & involved in D-Day landings, and they are always happy to see evidence someone still remembers, cause many don't!
