Wounded in Normandy 22nd June 44. No trace on S No or name. *Think mis-spelt.
FOUND: War Office Casualty List No. 1493 (reported 8 July 1944) gives Private M. Di'Luca, 14681395, 1st Bn KOSB, wounded, North West Europe. Wilson's book has 'N DiLuea, 14632393' – a mis-transcription. Normandy Wounded record corrected to match, keeping the original date of 22 June 1944.
