773rd Tank Destroyer Battalion:
This stay, on the Studland Range near Corfe Castle, and at D-1 at Lytchett Minster, sufficed also to check our equipment and the final preparations for combat. We returned to Camp D-6 on the 6th of August 1944, this time as the processed, in place of our former roles as the processor. We left Piddlehinton, loaded aboard two LST‟s and four LCT‟s at Porland Harbour, crossed the channel on the 7th, beautiful weather, and sighted and debarked on the Coast of Normandy.
