I have just read through my stepfathers account of his task for 6th june again,& seen,that he mentioned several men,in his troup 6th june 1944.
Sergent Lewis, his batman Evans,"An old friend David commanding'D' troup",& Philpotts Died while landing on Oisterham beach.
Does anyone know of these men ?
My stepfather,was Major William Robert Jennery.
It would be really very interesting to know about these people.

There was a Sargent E J Lewis of the Welch Rgt in No4. A Gnr H Evans of the RA in No4. Got these names from the Dieppe list of No4.

Bill Harvey (Son of Bill Harvey No4).
