The 'Standing with Giants' project has constructed 1,475 metal silhouettes for the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings AFP In the English countryside, volunteers put the finishing touches to 1,475 metal silhouettes representing British military personnel who died on D-Day, to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the landings. The "Standing with Giants" project is the brainchild of 54-year-old Dan Barton, a building renovation specialist who lives near Oxford, 60 miles (37 kilometres) northwest of London. Barton, who has crafted similar statues for other commemorations, said he wanted to make a "powerful" tribute to the soldiers who lost their lives during the largest seaborne invasion in history.
