Seventy years ago today the first boats and planes began to inch out of their hidings to head for Normandy. Tomorrow is the 70th anniversary of the landings. From then on it was a race for Berlin. Eventually on April 25, 1945 the US and Soviet armies met on the Elbe at the German town of Torgau.
Today is the 15teh anniversary of the death of Dominican Bertrand Naughton, a giant in the Irish Dominican Province.
