One of the last surviving original SAS soldiers who was dropped behind enemy lines on D-Day has died at the age of 98.
Alec Borrie was just a teenager when he was chosen to be one of the first recruits into the elite fighting force in 1942 during WWII at the age of just 18 - despite having no idea what the SAS did when he volunteered.
He first signed up for the army in 1942 and joined the Gordon Highlanders, but after four months training there were no vacancies in the battalions, so he was sent to the Highland Light Infantry.
