Your name [underlined] A.B. Mosher [end underlined]

In times of great crisis, people generally show either
great ingenuity or self-reliance; others do incredibly stupid
things. Do you remember any examples of either from D-Day?
as I remember there was nothing outstanding in
the actions of any particular individual during [crossed out] the [end crossed out]
"D" Day as we had not incountered the main opposition
and things progressed more or less according to
plan on the first day.

Where were at midnight on June 5, 1944? on the English channel.

Where were at midnight on June 6, 1944? somewhere between the
coast of France and Beny-sur-Mer.

Do you know of anybody else who landed within the 24 hours
of D-Day, June 6, as infantry, glider or airborne troops,
or who took part in the air and sea operations, whom
we should write to?
I know a considirable number of North Nova's
and could prehaps get you considerable information
as we are holding a Battalion reunion in amherst
N.S. on Aug 16/58.
