NIGHT SEARCHER Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 What a brave young man. To walk up and down sword beach on D Day playing his bag pipes whilst his mates were being cut down by German machine guns. Incredible Bravery. It is such a shame he passed away in 2010 at the age of 88. So he never got to see the bronze statue unveiled of him in France in 2013. RIP.

Thanks for putting up one of link things,me non pc/it savvy the one show did a feature about him,he just played the pipes walking up and down sword beach whilst being rained on with lead and schrapnel,his son promised he would learn pipes and play when they unvielled his statue.
