Hi Val,

Thanks for the offer to see the field returns and war diares for the 172nd. I would love to see them, I'm not sure how to contact you off-line... could you PM me and we can take it from there?

Thanks,
Paul

I know it's a year since you posted, but have you seen the website:
www.ddaycasualties.com.

They have a lot of information and I found my father (who was in the 172nd Divisional Company RASC) attached to the 3rd Division who landed on Sword beach.   There were 4 companies of RASC who were in the 3rd Division - the 23rd, 47th, 48th and 172nd.

Had a quick look at all the over Divisions, but couldn't find anything about the '3 AB'.

Good luck with your search.
Val

Val,

My grandfather was in 172 Company RASC, here his account from D-Day he gave to a local newspaper... http://www.bucksherald.co.uk/news/local-news/convoy-leaves-unaware-of-final-destination-1-604111

Best regards,
