D-Day+

A quiet day apart from an early morning skirmish in C Coy OP in WANSSUM.

A small German patrol must have occupied the OP during the hours of darkness and when the OP party went to occupy it next morning they were met with SA fire. The encounter was a short one - *one casualty to C Coy, but unfortunately the Boche made good his escape in the very thick ground mist.

A further extensive search failed to trace the intruders but wherever they went they produced no further trouble. *A/Cpl W P Armstrong
