It was 76 years, yesterday, since Johnny Mann and some other guys waded ashore at Dieppe, France.
Johnny was with the Montreal Fusiliers. He walked off the beach with 8 bullet holes in him. One of which was a compound leg fracture. Johnny didn't know that until the MO on the ship asked him how he got off the beach. "I walked, sir."
RIP Johnny.Information
