My uncle Paul was on a British ship at the front of the flotilla early on the morning of June 6th. The meal that they were fed made them all sick and as the landing was about to begin their ship turned around and went to the back of the line. He said there was no way they could fight as they were throwing up and had diahrea. He went ashore on D+3 a d said the devistation was incredible. He ended up in the 36 hour long battle at the battle of the bulge. I asked where he was when he herd the war(in the Pacific) had ended. Said he was on a troup train in France headed for a port on the Atlantic Ocean. He said their were recruitment officers trying to get men to go to the Pacific but we're getting no takers regardless of the money or promotions they were offering.

He lived to be 96 and what I just wrote is all I ever herd him say about his war experience.
