Once in a while, something sticks out and you may keep going back to it.<\/p>\n<p>These two videos are from 2018, and the group is the D-Day Darlings, who have taken up the task of reminding their own and future generations that freedom isn&#8217;t free.<\/p>\n<p>The D-Day Darlings singing group (UK) does WWI and WWII songs. In this video, they were auditioning for Britain&#8217;s G0t Talent in 2018.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=qCO2yv4cEhU\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=qCO2yv4cEhU<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The next video is the final competition, with their lovely rendering of \u201cWhite Cliffs of Dover\u201d and the appearance of WWII vets. Please note, this was Vera Lynn&#8217;s &#8220;song&#8221; during World War II. And if this doesn&#8217;t make you a little nostalgic for those days, listen again.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=A54jr8cb6AM\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=A54jr8cb6AM<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The UK and USA both have the &#8220;Got Talent&#8221; competitions started some time ago by Simon &hellip; <a title=\"A Small Reminder\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=86049\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">A Small Reminder<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":653,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[218,10,18,217],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-86049","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-feel-good-stories","category-historical","category-support-the-troops","category-we-remember"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86049","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/653"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=86049"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86049\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":86050,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86049\/revisions\/86050"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=86049"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=86049"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=86049"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
