DID YOU KNOW: William "Bill" Millin, known as the "Mad Piper," was a Scottish bagpiper who famously played the pipes during the D-Day landings in Normandy.

He was the personal piper to Lord Lovat, the commander of the 1st Special Service Brigade. Bill was the only man to wear a kilt during the landings and was armed only with his pipes and a dirk.

Bill's extraordinary presence and the sound of the bagpipes on the beach, despite the intense gunfire, have become a symbol of courage and defiance during the Normandy invasion. Captured German snipers later stated they did not shoot him because they thought he was insane and suicidal, according to the British Army.

Bill Millin's actions at D-Day, particularly his unwavering spirit and the inspiring music he provided, are remembered as a powerful testament to the human spirit during the war.
