Exercise tiger war memorial
To this day, the only memorial to the incident is in the village of Torcross by the beach where locals put up a plaque commemorating the dead, along with a Sherman tank that was raised from the waters. Although the military eventually put up a memorial thanking the villagers for evacuating their homes during this period, there is no official memorial to those killed during Exercise Tiger. Survivors of the horror of that night still make pilgrimages to Torcross, but their numbers are dwindling.
