    Sunday will be the 65th Anniversary of the Dieppe Raid.
    Another day at the office for the British but a tragic Day for Canada.
    An historic day for the USA as it was the first time their ground forces fought on mainland Europe in WW2.
    Has anyone a list of those 50 US Rangers and how many of them survived the war?
    I've asked on another Forum but we have more Americans here so maybe I'll get a result.
    I'll be on holiday down the coast from Dieppe soon but not sure I'll be able to get there for the 19th.
