S! to the Allied soldiers, sailors and pilots who hit Gold, Sword, Juno, Utah and Omaha that day.

Not much French landed that day on their own soil , the well known n°4 Commando aka Commando Kieffer and the less known French SAS in Britanny (operations Samwest and Dingon)

kaa,
Nos 1 and 8 Troop, No. 10 (Inter-Allied) Commando (attached to No. 4 Commando) 6 June Capitaine de frégate Philippe Kieffer
4ème Bataillon d'Infanterie de l'Air 4e BIA (2ème Régiment de Chasseurs Parachutistes 2e RCP from 1 August) / (4th SAS) 6 June Capitaine Pierre-Louis Bourgoin
There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB. The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed. There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.
