Col Clair Adams, CD, Royal Canadian Army Service Corps

Colonel Adams was a Transport Sergeant on D-Day, and spent the day in an assembly area near the London Docks, waiting to board ship for France. On landing about 10 days later, the Transport group operated in support of a field armament division taking materials to the front and operating a fleet of ambulances to remove casualties. On August 27, Sergeant Adams found himself behind the lines and was stopped by enemy sentries but escaped with bullet wounds in an ankle.
