The plight of forgotten heroes of Dunkirk, which included many men from the Oban area, will be told on TV this weekend.
The previously untold story of the 51st Highland Division, who were left in France when Dunkirk was evacuated and ordered to fight on against Hitler’s war machine in the face of overwhelming odds, will be told on Channel 4 this Sunday July 15 at 8pm.
The 51st Highland Division had originally been the 1st Highland Territorial Division when it was raised in 1908.
