Hector Duff included in New Year Honours for second time
A Manx D-Day veteran awarded an OBE in the New Year Honours admits he didn't think he'd be included on the list for a second time.
Hector Duff previously featured in the 2013 honours, when he received the British Empire Medal.
The latest medal recognises his work with children, veterans and the wider community on the Isle of Man.
Mr Duff, who celebrated his 100th birthday last year, says the OBE wasn't the award he was put forward for:
Planning application for onshore wind farm still being developed
MU continuing to engage with stakeholders
Motorcyclist suffered fatal chest injuries in crash
Gareth Underwood was pronounced dead at Noble's Hospital
Trial for trio accused of producing Class A drugs to Island
Men from UK stopped by police in July 2025
Too early for 'direct action' over cost-of-living concerns says chief minister
Island's inflation rate jumps to 4.9%
Government gives assurance as inflation soars
'No immediate changes to gas prices or supply'
