76 years ago HMS Campbeltown with her accompanying flotilla of ML's and MGB's was minutes away from crashing the outer gate of the Normandie Dock and beginning the St Nazaire Raid.
We shall not forget all those who took part.

Remembering today Tom McCormack, who a fortnight after the raid finally succumbed to his wounds on this day 76 years ago.
We shall remember them all and their sacrifice.
