World War Two / Re: Mobile Signal Units (MSU 519 G)
« on: Saturday 25 August 18 09:24 BST (UK) »
Hello
My Dad was in MSU 519 G. He disembarked on the the 1st July 1944. I was told that his unit was with 71 MTLRU at Secqueville en Bessin on the 24th July 1944. I assume these units were in 83 Group. I need to know the structure of the 83 group and how they travelled across the channel. Where did they disembark?
I was told that there were 10 wings to the group e.g. 125 Wing with Supermarine Spitfires. I have a list of 83 Group HQs. I suspect that the units followed he route of the HQs.
Thank you for any help with this.
Paul.
