  • Operation Overlord 1944
    Operation Overlord, 6 June 1944 Nottinghamshire The landings on five beaches in northern France on the morning of 6 June 1944 by upwards of 156,000 troops of 14 allied countries marked the beginning of Operation Overlord. These were contemporary with successes in other theatres of the Second World War in 1944, in Italy at Monte Casino and in Northeast India at Kohima. It heralded the last phase of the conflict and the liberation of Nazi-occupied Europe. The invasion was the result of long and meticulous planning as well as a triumph of combined operations between all the arms of the services in the sea, on the land and in the air, with the support of the civilian population including industry and agriculture which provided the armaments, ordnance, equipment, rations etc Men and women from all backgrounds and walks of life were involved and many paid with their lives. Men and women from Nottinghamshire served in all branches of the Armed Forces during this conflict and it is not possible to say how many people were involved except it would be many thousands. We can however identify some examples specifically from our own county: Royal Navy Whilst there were no ships specifically linked to Nottinghamshire, as the largest amphibious operation ever seen, the contribution of both the Royal Navy, Royal Marine Commandos and the Merchant Navy cannot be overstated with sailors from Nottinghamshire serving in all three services. Guards Armoured Division The Guards Armoured Division which trained for D Day at Thoresby and was among the earliest to land on D Day.

  • Arthur James Springham, Fireman at Harlow Killed in Action Arthur
    Arthur James Springham, Fireman at Harlow Killed in Action Arthur James Springham was born in 1881 in High Wych to James, an agricultural labourer and Sarah Springham and had an elder brother William. At the time of his birth, the family lived at Cottage number 7, Allens Green, High Wych, Hertfordshire. In January 1910 he marries Edith Ellen nee Wybrew and moves to Bury Road, Harlow, and shortly afterwards joins the Harlow Fire Brigade. His occupation at this time is a Postman. On Wednesday 22nd June 1910, he is a member of the Harlow Fire Brigade who participate in the St John’s Fete at Harlow, in which even though he has only been a member of the brigade for 6 months he wins two silver medals in the contests organised between different fire brigades. In 1911 he has a daughter Dorris May, who is two months old at the time of the 1911 Census. At this time Arthur and his family are visiting his parents at Allens Green, High Wych, Hertfordshire, and the census form for Bury Road, Harlow indicates this by stating that ‘Family Away’ is put on the form when it is submitted. After the outbreak of World War 1, Arthur enlists with the Essex Regiment at Harlow and is given the regimental number 30539. However he later transfers to the 1st Battalion of the Bedfordshire Regiment, his regimental number here being 33388. It would appear that for the duration of the war that his wife, Edith and daughter, have moved back to Edith’s parents address in The Square, Ugley, Bishop’s Stortford.
