Is this in a landing craft of some sort?!
Are there "summer ops" going on now?
More please.

I spent some time talking to an elderly lady who lived across the street from this house. She said she remembered seeing the soldier cooking up the squad's rations and saw the photographer take the photo.
I showed her some other photos taken in the village on that day in 1944. Nearly couldn't get the book back from her

Hi Rick
I was at a local `40`s weekend last week . Saw a chap with a three c and a Contax with a war time sonnar.
We got talking and your name came came up and he showed me this shot on his phone.
Nice to see it here and what a great re construction.

Hah, I was wondering who of the RFF-crew Allen had met at Lytham. He mentioned meeting you, but he didn't know your name.

I love the visual surprise of this. You don't expect the kids to be where they are. It made me blink a couple of times!
