What really gets to me is.................we were NEVER allowed to cross the channel and land on Frenchsoil in any marked vehicles or travel in uniform, still in force.
We had to travel to Esberg or Bussem harbours in Denmarkso we could protect the northern German
flank at Schlewig Hostein. Times when they wanted us to jump in for THEIR celebrations, but very rarely for battles that were fought on French soil during DDAY and before.
Never got a direct answer as to why that was..............any takers?
