A project to remember ten forgotten men.
Myself and fellow project co-founder Darren Bond have started a new project to build three memorials in England to coincide with the 82nd anniversary of the 82nd Airborne Division being stationed in England during WWII. The ten men that will be remembered by these memorials were all killed in accidents or died during their time stationed in England.
​
Below you will see a download link for our project brochure, which profiles each of the men, the circumstances behind their deaths and what the current plans for each memorial are. Please take a look, and if you wish to contribute towards the project please follow the link below, and please follow us on facebook for regular updates.
​
From myself and Daz, we cannot thank you enough for taking the time to look at what we're trying to achieve, and any donations would be appreciated beyond words.

The Team.
Co-founder of this project is Adam Berry, who in 2013 campaigned and raised funds for permanent memorials to the 325th Glider Infantry Regiment, 504th Parachute Infantry Regiment, and 507th Parachute Infantry Regiments close to their former campsites in Leicestershire and Nottingham. Adam is a published historian on the 82nd Airborne Division, with a particular interest in the Divisions time spent in the UK.
For the past eight years, Co-Founder Darren Bond has dedicated himself to arranging memorials at various locations across England. These memorials honour the men of the Division who died during training and mark key embarkation points for the
“All Americans,” work that has brought the names of men rarely mentioned in history books to light, ensuring their sacrifices are remembered.
