As the daughter of a D-Day veteran, (Army 29th Div., 116 Inf. Batt.) who was in the first group who landed on Normandy Beach on June 6, my heart and prayers go out to this brave soldier and his loved ones. I’m truly sorry that I was unable to attend his last rites.

Make that Omaha Beach for my father’s jumping off on D-Day.

116th of the 29th.
By chance was your dad one of the Bedford Boys, company A?
