Title: Commemorative Walks Spotlight Paratroopers’ History at Former RAF Base
Revised Content:
Historic guided walks are slated to be conducted at the former RAF North Witham airbase, a site of profound importance during the D-Day landings. This Lincolnshire location, once a hive of activity for U.S. paratroopers instrumental in the initial stages of the June 6th, 1944, invasion of France, is currently recognised as Twyford Wood and is under the care of Forestry England. The walks are integral components of the South Kesteven District Council’s Soldiers from the Sky initiative, which seeks to shed light on the accounts of the courageous Allied airborne forces that underwent training and launched their missions from Lincolnshire.
