Yes Mark,

certainly a noteworthy day, today. Any idea where the picture was taken? My guess would be Bernieres-sur-Mer. Anyone know for sure? I will be in Normandy next week.

Hi Alex;

Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer (NAN RED Beach - The North Shore (New Brunswick) Regiment & "C" Sqn, 10 CAR (FGH)). Two of the three DD tanks of "C" Sqn, 10 CAR (FGH) that were lost to enemy fire on the beach can be seen in the photo along with AVREs of 80th Assault Squadron, R.E., along with other various vehicles.

Cheers
