Greetings
I am researching the Hallamshire battalion (York & Lanc's Regt.)
Seeking information on the landing craft that carried them to Gold Beach. They embarked on D+3 in 5 LCI(L)'s from Newhaven Hard and disembarked on maybe Gold Jig but not sure. What flotilla and craft carried them.
While waiting to move from Newhaven, the Commanding Officer and a couple of others spent their free time producing a battalion battle flag from scrap material. The flag flew from the mast head of the LCI all the way through to Germany at every Bn HQ.
Any help appreciated - than you.
