H-Hour on Gold and Sword

H-Hour on Gold and Sword Beaches.
The 50th British Infantry Division land at Gold Beach. At Sword Beach
the 3rd British Infantry division land. Rather than utilizing their
capacity to "swim" inland, DD tanks and Funnies are landed directly
onto the beach at Gold because of delays due to bad weather.
