Book arrived today thanks. I shall enjoy reading the book knowing that this very book was read by somebody who was there ie Bill "Dutch" Holland" No. 2 Commando. His daughter Denise added a lovely note which I will keep in the book.
I wonder what Bill thought of the book ?
Paul was equally pleased with his book.
