Well as Paul Reed said, they're gonna be hard to come by. But if anyone comes across any, stick 'em on here. Like wise, so will I.
Marcus What are you actually after? the war diaries of 6th Airborne from D Day onwards? I know, having corresponded with the Webmaster of Pegasus Archive, that he wil be trying to update the site with all those as soon as he can, and if you email him, he is an absolute mine of information! Regards Andy
Cheers Andy. Yeah I'm after any kind of report about the 1st and 6th airborne from D-day onwards. You know, battle reports/diaries/personal accounts. Something like this Up the Johns! History of Regina Rifles - Normandy which Owen kindly posted. I'm wanting to learn about what the british achieved, as oppposed to 'the Allies'. Cheers marcus
Didn't realise it was any units. There are a couple on my main Battlefields website: British Army in Normandy - Normandy Unit Profiles Plus details of NW Europe British Divisions on my D Day Ancestors site: British Divisions in Normandy 1944
P.s. Not just Airborne though. Any and all british units. cheers What about the Aussies? Just kidding!
What about the Aussies? Just kidding! No bother mate. I'm working my way around the lot. Read so far about the US (brought about by my sudden love of BOB, now I'm looking at the British. After I've absorbed as much as I can, I'm gonna learn about units in the Pacific, Italy and Africa. WAY too much to take in at once an' remember it.
