By Douglas Livingstone

For 40 years Dave has put behind him the fact that he landed on the Normandy beaches on D-Day - 6 June 1944. He doesn't remember his comrades with any special affection and has no wish to indulge in memories. But in June 1984 he goes back to Normandy and faces the ghosts of the past, and one ghost in particular.
