Blackcatter, I am sure the numbers include airborne troops. We used them too.
McGrath, the Red Army faced the main German strength. Had they not been so successful, D Day could have waited until we were ready and it would not have been such a gamble or so close run. Europe could not be abandoned to Stalin's version of 'liberation'
I attended a commemoration sevice this morning in Hertford. Very few turned up.
Thanks indeed Yanks, but next time please do not leave us to struggle on alone for so long.
Also, your people did so many brave deeds. Please don't make films that portray our people's deeds as carried out by Americans too.
Keith.
