Oral Histories

Coastal Forces Heritage Trust Oral Histories

The Coastal Forces Heritage Trust recorded a series of 36 oral histories at the end of the 20th century. These recordings, published as individual DVDs, are the living testimony of the sailors and officers who served with valour and distinction in our Second World War Coastal Forces.

A full description of each DVD, including which events and personalities are included, can be found on our Shop page.

You can order your DVD’s via our online shop or by email and they will be sent to your address.
