The Allied landings of 6 June 1944 have monopolised the Norman memory of the Second World War, to the point of overshadowing vast swathes of the history of that period. Normans are inexhaustible when it comes to the D-Day landings and the Battle of Normandy, yet they are far less forthcoming about the Occupation, or else content themselves with lamentable...
