Further D-Day footage to be released by BBC Rare, unseen and uncut footage featuring some of the final remaining survivors of D-Day is to be published by the BBC on a new publishing platform, as a free, interactive, digital book. Set to coincide with the upcoming BBC series, D-Day: The Last Heroes, the new footage will feature powerful accounts from D-Day veterans and will be called D-Day's Last Heroes: In Their Own Words. This extra footage will include the last ever interview with glider pilot Staff Sergeant Jim Wallwork who was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross for his role in helping to liberate Pegasus Bridge on D-Day. Despite landing in complete darkness with only a compass for guidance, Sgt. Wallwork landed a glider full of combat troops exactly on target in a feat which Air Chief Marshall Leigh-Mallory described as "one of the outstanding flying achievements of the war." Jim Wallwork died on January 24th 2013. Today marks the 69th anniversary of the D-Day landings. This extra material is available from Sunday 9 June for free via the iBookstore bbc.co.uk/dday.
