  | Remember that the Oxs & Bucks at Pegasus Bridge were only one battalion of the regiment; are you sure he was with them? The 1st Battalion was a standard infantry battalion in the 43rd (Wessex) Division; they had heavily casualties near Caen in July 1944, with many more re-enforcements arriving as the conflict went on. Have you tried writing to MOD for his details? See: http://wwiiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=82
