2/ Western Canadian infantry battalions stormed ashore at Courseulles-sur-Mer. The tanks of the @1stHussars from London, ON supported the Royal Winnipeg Rifles (@cityofwinnipeg), the Regina Rifle Regiment (@CityofRegina), and the Canadian Scottish Regiment from @CityOfVictoria.
3/ The @queensownrifles from Toronto assaulted Bernières-sur-Mer while the North Shore (New Brunswick) Regiment landed nearby to attack Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer. Tanks from the Fort Garry Horse, raised in the @cityofwinnipeg area, supported both attacks.
