This unit never used Sextons. They landed on DDAY with M7 Priests and Sherman’s.

The Sherman in the background with the plotting board was the gun troop commanders tank. This is the same tank on the left in this picture. Taken just before embarking on the LCT for DDay. My grandfathers cousin is poking his head out of the turret for the Sherman on the right side “China Clipper”. It never made it to the beach as it hit a submerged mine in the surf and blew up. My grandfathers cousin managed to get out and swim ashore. He then later joined Garth Webb’s crew in the other Sherman and stayed with him until the end of the war.
