Letter: In the dark on D-Day
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Sir: Thank you, Mr Cronin ('Let's black out D-Day'; letter, 23 April). Who asked your opinion?
Old people rarely appreciate what you do for them, because they are rarely asked what they would like to do with the resources someone else is proposing to spend on their behalf.
Vera Lynn answers the question on whether she will sing at the D- Day celebration: 'It depends on the Service chaps, the British Legion and other vets.'
Yours sincerely,
