Your name Le Febvre
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?

Where were you at midnight on June 5, 1944?
enroute to Normandy by plane

Where were you at midnight on June 6, 1944?
In a hedgerow hiding from the Germans

Do you know of anybody else who landed within those 24 hours (midnight
June 5 to midnight June 6) as infantry, glider or airborne troops, or
who took part in the air and sea operations, whom we should write to?
Yes
Lt Col John Marr, Abn Dept, The Infantry School, Ft Benning Ga
Capt Homer H. Jones , MAAG, Portugal, c/o American Embassy Lisbon, Portugal
