The UNTOLD Story Of The Piper Of Pegasus Bridge

STORMING The D-Day Beaches Armed With Bagpipes - The Piper Of Pegasus Bridge.'

BBC News 5 JUL 2022.

One of the most amazing stories of the Second World War saw a Scottish piper land on Sword Beach with Simon Fraser, the 15th Lord Lovat.

William 'Bill' Millin, instead of being armed with his rifle was carrying his bagpipes and was under orders to continue piping despite being met with enemy fire.

The Germans were using their machine guns against the allied soldiers who landed on the beach, but Bill Millin kept playing his bagpipes. Whilst his soldiers and friends were being shot and falling around him, he played his bagpipes.

German soldiers who were later captured confirmed that they had seen Bill Millin playing his pipes on the beach, and the snipers confirmed that they did not shoot him as they thought he was crazy! As the advance from Sword Beach continued, the British soldiers pushed forward and they headed towards Pegasus Bridge which had been taken earlier in the morning by paratroopers. Millin was ordered to play his bagpipes over the bridge, and despite 12 of his colleagues being shot around him across the bridge he made it. The sight would have been an epic one.

Bill Millin was given his orders by Lord Lovat, and the two became friends but the sight of a piper storming the D-Day beaches with only his bagpipes would have been incredible.

Bill Millin continued to play his pipes with Allied advances, and he saw service in the Netherlands and also in Germany before he was demobilised in 1946. He went to go and work on Lovat's highland estate as the decades passed.

Today he is remembered as the 'Piper of Pegasus Bridge,' and is commemorated in a statue overlooking Sword Beach.
