My husband and I saw a program on one of the Cable TV channels (probably the History Channel) within the last few weeks on the Normandy invasion and the intergral part played by the Seabees and other engineer units. It was just fascinating. And yes they suffered great casualties being on the initial assault. Amazing that any of them made it through alive to tell their stories.

 

CAN DO! :pdt34:
