Police are appealing for witnesses to the sickening vandalism which took place at Twyford Wood in Lincolnshire. During World War Two the site was used as an airfield where many soldiers flew out for the Normandy invasion. A number of areas within the wood have been defaced with swastikas in silver and white spray paint. These include a commemorative bench which remembers those soldiers who flew out from the site on D-Day. As a final act, he unveiled a new commemorative interpretation board installed in Twyford Wood to tell the story of the mission.
