Dad was in the Gloucestershire Regiment, he was seconded to the Canadians as he had seen action and was with them to help them get ashore, he wore a Polar Bear insignia on his arm and landed with them on Juno Beach, he stayed with the Canadians for quit a while as they made there way inland, he was awarded the Military Medal whilst on the Journey and was immensely proud to have received and to have done his bit, however he never spoke about it much apart from the fact that he was on D Day.
