Originally posted by Barry Read My carrier was part of the offical army display on the beach at Arromanche. We had travelled from England on the landing craft, with a Churchill, a Sherman and a Dingo.
12 hours of rolling and pitching then landed in front of the VIP's.
What an experance I will never forget, and a real honour.
Here's a pic of Barry and his son preparing their T16 on a barge, Port-en-Bessin, June 5. Well done, that man!
