Can anyone advise if UK (HM) LCTs took part in training based around Slapton Sands, which culminated in the disaster of 28 Apr 1944.
Ex Tiger reports only mention a convoy of LSTs, but a family recollection is for HM LCT 558 being part of this training.
Noting Ex Tiger reports usually state the training was for the ships and craft to be used on Utah, this would reflect that LCT558 is not listed for British beaches on D-Day.
We understand UK LCTs were actually used on Utah on D Day.
Thanks in advance, Jim
