Cheers for that.
I just found this. SeniorNet:XMilitary Record 1943-1945 and Post War Years
By a member of 394 Inf. Quote:
Sept. 29, 1944 The 394th boarded the USS Excellceor II. Destination Europe, It was a real stinking ship, but I guess they all did.
Oct. 11, 1944 After 10 days on the water, we disembarked at Liverpool, England - Loaded on trains and traveled south to a small village on the coast called West Bay. They had good fish & chips here.
Nov. 2, 1944 Loaded on troop trains and headed for Southamption. Embarked on LCI's and crossed the channel to LeHarve, France.
| So you weren't in England that long.
Ever been back?
