He is getting old, and his memory is not what it used to be. I want to make sure Ihave the right Information. He went in on D-Day +3. Any help would be much appreciated.
davlew25;

From what you've said above, your uncle may have served with "C" Squadron, 25th Canadian Armoured Delivery Regiment (The Elgin Regiment) who landed in Normandy early on the morning of D+2 (8 Jun). "C" Squadron were the Armoured Delivery Squadron for the 2nd Canadian Armoured Brigade which consisted of the following Armoured Regiments:

6th Canadian Armoured Regiment (First Hussars)
10th Canadian Armoured Regiment (Fort Garry Horse)
27th Canadian Armoured Regiment (Sherbrooke Fusilier Regiment)

Hope this helps.

What is your uncle's name, I have a nominal roll for the Elgins 1939-45.

Cheers
