BBC Radio 4 on its Sunday morning programme read the news exactly as it was read on the Sunday after D-Day.
It made for great radio.
The bulletin constantly mentioned what the British Army, Navy and Airforce were doing but never mentioned a word about the other armies involved in the landings.
And they never used the word 'Germany' or 'Germans'. Instead, they kept referring to the 'enemy'.
