Hi Mike/Tony;

Regarding the Daimlers being towed, the following were the Tank/Daimler on tow combinations from the following Tank Landing Craft, as per the allocation table:

From TLC 1 (No. 145) - CALGARY - towed - HORACE ashore
From TLC 2 (No. 127) - CAT - towed - HECTOR ashore
From TLC 4 (No. 126) - BOLSTER - towed - HELEN ashore
From TLC 5 (No. 121) - BLUEBELL - towed - HARRY ashore
From TLC 7 (No. 124) - BLOODY - towed - HUNTER ashore
From TLC 9 (No. 166) - BLONDIE - towed - HARE ashore
From TLC 10 (No. 165) - CONFIDENT - towed - HOUND ashore

A note regarding the two D7 Bulldozers, one was carried on TLC 3 (No. 159) and the other on TLC 6 (No. 163), neither was landed. The one on TLC 3 (No. 159) was caught in the TLC's wreckage and the other returned to England aboard TLC 6 (No. 163), being unable to land on the beach due to enemy fire.

Cheers
