Summary

On her 97th birthday the original Forces' Sweetheart, Dame Vera Lynn, celebrates by announcing the forthcoming release of a brand new album, 'Vera Lynn: National Treasure - The Ultimate Collection!' Released on 6 June to mark the 70th anniversary of the World War II D-Day Landings (which happened on the 6th June, 1944), this remarkable and very special new album will feature not only Dame Vera's most memorable and morale-boosting hits that sustained Britons through the wartime years, but some previously unreleased tracks, recently discovered by her daughter Virginia. "I think it's wonderful that my songs are still enjoyed, especially if it encourages people to commemorate what happened seventy years ago. It's moving for me to relive those days, and humbling to know that people still think of me - after all, it was simply my duty to keep singing" - Dame Vera Lynn
