Would these same Landing Craft serial numbers have carried over to Operation Neptune a month later???
I believe they would have, but just want to get some second opinions.
Thanks,

Hi,
When it comes to the Canadian 3rd Infantry Division taking part in Exercise Fabius -- if you know the LCIS and LCIL numbers from this Exercise you may compare them to the numbers published in the newest Mark Zuehlke's book "Juno Beach: Canada's D-Day Victory, June 6, 1944" (Douglas & McIntyre, Vancouver 2005, ISBN 1-55365-050-6). The author published all Canadian LCA, LCIS, LCIL, LCT, LSIH, LSIM, LSIL and LST numbers.
Best regards
C.
