Royal Marines Recreate D-Day Yomp

Away from the Normandy beaches the Royal Marines held a special commemoration of their amphibious actions in 1944. 
 
47 Commando's capture of Port-en-Bessin was re-created with a yomp to the town which was to become an essential Allied asset: a key port for fuel, delivered by PLUTO - the pipeline under the ocean.
