June 6, 1944.  If I could only be so brave as to face what those men faced.   :salute

Written at the time in a logbook I have of an RCAF Spitfire pilot who was flying Spitfire XIVs with 91 squadron at the time of D-Day.  I think his comment is the best I've seen on D-Day that was put down at the moment, not in retrospect.
