This day in 1944, British elite forces of No. 30 Commando raided a Kriegsmarine HQ at Cherbourg, capturing 20 officers and 500 men.
Meanwhile, the US 79th Division captured Cherbourg garrison commander Von Schlieben. Cherbourg was captured days later. #WW2

I was privileged to spend the day with Bill Marshall recently. He landed in Normandy just before D-Day, entered Paris with Le Clerc on the day of Liberation, and dug up rocket-fuel secrets buried by Nazi chemists in a wood. A modest, unpretentious, plain-speaking, unsung hero.
