to ALL the troops landing on D1, by sea and by air.
Shame that most kids nowadays don't know there were 2 British and 1 Canadian beaches in addition to the 2 US ones.
How Hollywood and the games industry can write off such a valiant effort and only mention the US effort is beyond me.
Even a UK TV station recently aired a programme that stated 'the airborne drops early on D-Day went disastrously wrong' (or words to that effect).
Whereas it was only the US drop that was messed-up (for many, understandable reasons) and that the British drop was (mainly) an outstanding success.
Is that what people fought, bled died for?; to be written out of history within 65 years??
Good to see on here at least that we recognise the efforts sacrifices of ALL

BTW the expression ****-up (male hen) does not refer to the male member and therefore is not rude!!!! God I hate swear-filters, especially when they're wrong!!!!!!!!!
