I have stood on the sands at Dog Green a couple of times.  Drawn there by the story of the Bedford Boys.
Looking at those cliffs and reflecting on the assault one can only get misty eyed and humbled.

Who could have known on that January 1940 morning when 46 of Bedford's finest would climb onto an N&W coach to head off to training that 23 of them would get off at a station stop called "Eternity".
