On the northern coast of France, there is a beach called Utah. When Britain and America joined forces with our Allies to begin the liberation of Europe during World War Two, one of the beaches where US troops landed was codenamed after the Beehive State.
This windswept expanse of sand and shingle, nearly 5,000 miles from Salt Lake City, has been universally known as Utah ever since, in tribute to the American soldiers who stormed ashore on 6th June 1944.
President Trump will pay a state visit to Britain this week to commemorate the 75th anniversary of D-Day (another codename that has become permanent).
