9th Battalion Durham Light Infantry (Normandy, June 1944)

Were you able to obtain the price for a copy the 9th DLI War Diary, including Appendices/attachments, for June 1944, Paul?

 

Hi Steve, unfortunately i was unable to get there myself but a pal of mine went and asked one of the staff to copy the diary for me but to date nothing has arrived , i'll try and pop in this week to get a copy done.

 

Hello - I wondered whether the folk on this thread were able to secure a digital copy of the 9th DLI WD for June 1944? If so I would be most grateful if this might be available for purchase or forwarding on. I am visiting Normandy in two weeks and would like to track the battalion movements as part of some research we are doing.

Many thanks,
M

 

Have you seen Post 9? It has something.

As you have not posted enough to use the 'Start a Conversation' (Private Message) I will drop PaulE an alert message. He was logged in a few days ago and may have an alert on this thread.

 

Thanks David that is very helpful. Appreciated. Whilst I have the top level text from the June war diary I am curious to see if there are any annex documents or attachments that supports the war diary narrative.

 

I have not seen any Appendices to the June 9 DLI WD other than the Pre D Day Op Orders etc , i suspect there will be some but they are probably only available at Kew.
