Memorial to 507 parachute regiment in Tollerton

Every Remembrance Sunday the Parish Council lays a wreath at the village war memorial on behalf of residents to remember those who lost their lives in conflict – particularly those from Tollerton.

The United States 507th Parachute Infantry Regiment were based at Tollerton Hall before D-Day and Tollerton has hosted a memorial to their sacrifice since 2013.

The 507 Parachute Infantry Regiment were part of 82 Airborne Division and this year a special wreath will be laid at the memorial in remembrance of the 507 Parachute, 82 Airborne, 82 years on from D-Day.
