The Invasion Begins by Commander Rex Phillips.

British troops in Royal Naval landing craft approach Sword Beach during the D- Day landings, while overhead Typhoons attack the German heavy gun and machine gun positions defending the beaches. Sword beach was the furthest east of the five Normandy invasion beaches - the others were codenamed Juno, Gold, Omaha and Utah. Sword beach was subdivided into four areas; Queen, Roger, Peter and Oboe beaches, and was a five mile beach from Ouistreham at the mouth of the River Orne on the east stretching west to Lion-sur-Mer. At Sword Beach were the British 3rd Division, the 1st Lancashire Regiment, 2nd East Yorkshire regiment, the 8th Infantry Brigade and 13th / 18th Hussars. The task of taking Caen and the airfields nearby was given to the 3rd Division. Losses on the first day were 630 dead and wounded from a force of 29,000 men.

Commander Rex Phillips

Commander Rex Phillips was born in the fens of Cambridgeshire. Educated at the Nautical College, Pangbourne, he entered the Royal Navy as a cadet in 1949 and subsequently served for 34 years with much of that time in Frigates, Destroyers, Cruisers and Aircraft Carriers and although without formal art training, his many years experience at sea as a Navigating Officer, sailing over most of the seas and oceans of the world, have provided a wealth of material and professional background from which to draw. His works can be found in collections in America, France, Norway, Australia and Holland as well as in the UK, including those at the RN Museum, naval establishments, the RNLI and other institutions. His primary subjects are marine.
