It's coming up to the 70th Anniversary of the D-Day landings of 6th. June 1944. My Dad was D-Day plus 3. Later in life, my Dad said "what the hell did they fight for?" He served with the Worcestershire Regiment and also the Royal Artillery on anti aircraft Bofors guns.

After VE Day he like many many others where sent to India for the planned invasion of Japan. Then the USA dropped two atom bombs onto Japan ending the war. Harry spent time at the infamous Deolali transit camp and suffered 'deolali tap'.
