		Never mind Saving Private Ryan or Medal Of Honor on the PS2, these guys from Bradford were there...				It was the biggest battle in history...but what ACTUALLY happened? Find out right here!

		Bradford film expert Tony Earnshaw explains how D-Day's been depicted on the big screen.				Do we still need to remember the events of D-Day in 2004, or is it time to move on? Have YOUR say!

		What did people in West Yorkshire hear on the wireless as D-Day began? Listen here to find out...				Find out more about what World War 2 and D-Day was like right here in West Yorkshire.
