I have just seen this entry and this forum. My uncle is Raymond Daeche who indeed does tell of landing in a glider in the early hours of D Day. He was attached to the field ambulance and duties included clearing the casualties from the barbed wire on the beaches at low tide. He does not speak too much of these times but is still very proud ( as we are of him). he recently represented the RBL at services in Normandy.

We all need to wish the old soldier luck as this week he enters Harlow hospital for heart surgery.

I would be happy to assist as much as I can with any research being conducted relating to this thread.

All the best 'boy'
