Can anyone help with any information on Operation, 'Brassard' / 'Cut out'. Namely, The landing and liberation of ELBA 20 June 1944. The names and location of the following are required: The names of the few survivors of Royal Navy beach commando unit Able 1 and Able 2 and Obie 3 who took part in this landing please. The names of members and location of remaining sub units Royal navy beach commando unit Able 3 and Obie 1 and Obie 2 please. I think these units did not take part in the operation.
Hi Mallonj67 What info (if any) do you have at the moment - a general Google search throws up several good links, but there is no point in copying them for you if you already have them?? Are you searching (as you have posted in that category) for someone particular??
