Abstract
En 中文
Bill Millin was a Scottish soldier serving as the personal piper to Simon Fraser, 15th Lord Lovat, the commander of the British 1st Special Service Brigade going ashore in Normandy, in the D-Day landings on 6 June 1944. Lovatt ordered Millin to play his pipes on the beach to encourage the soldiers advancing under heavy German fire. Remarkably, Millin was untouched, despite marching up and down the beach, playing regimental tunes, strongly motivating the soldiers charging up the beach.
