D Day soldier wants more attention for memorial sites
After his New Years award of an OBE, war veteran Hector Duff says he will be continuing to battle but this time to give the Island's sites of war memorial greater attention.
Mr Duff, who already had the British Empire Medal, has been recognised for his tireless work in talking to school children about his wartime experiences.
He was in the second wave of soldiers who came ashore on the D Day beaches in Normandy.
Mr Duff says he's distressed about the lack of attention being given to the seventeen war memorials around the Island and to the National Memorial in St Johns:
Bird flu confirmed after wild buzzard found dead near Bride
Call for renewed focus on equality and accessibility in government
Isle of Man Freemasons to lay wreath ahead of Remembrance Day
MHK won't pursue removal of Bishop vote further if bill is rejected
