The D-Day Memorial is situated on Eastney Esplanade, slightly west of canoe lake.

A mistaken inscription?
It's believed that the date was initially incorrectly inscribed as 1944. The two pictures below seem to corroborate this.
Site member Ena Bowles said she remembers an individual chipping away at the memorial after it was put in place, and fresh cement being applied to the date.
