Silver poppies for Mid and East Antrim’s D-Day veterans
Alderman John Carson said: “As the 75th anniversary of the end of the Second World War approaches, council will hold a special service in November for all surviving veterans, including those in the Merchant Navy, who reside in our borough.
“We are extremely proud of our strong military links and heritage here in Mid and East Antrim and we would like to present all surviving D–Day veterans with a silver poppy of remembrance to mark their service in the fight against fascism and Nazism.”
