yes, some moving accounts, I read them all. Horrible, sad, but, thanks to people like Ken Small, not forgotten. I was about two years old then. The fact that they did not have any protection should have been addressed, I wonder if it ever was - and Admiral Moore (sp?) committed suicide, I wonder if that was because of what happened that day. It reminds me of something else I heard about in respect of the landing craft going toward the beach (Utah?) on D-Day, and the fully manned tanks being released into the water before they got close enough, with the consequent loss of all their crews due to drowning. Was that really so? Another tragedy that should not have happened - but in the chaos of war I suppose such things will surely happen.
