June 6, 1944, Juno Beach, Normally Someone threw up, it was the same soldier who threw up 30 seconds ago, but none of us said anything because we felt like throwing up too. I was on a landing boat to Juno Beach, I could hear other soldiers shouting and firing guns. When the door opened, instead of seeing land, in front of us was deep water. Since I was in the back of the landing boat, I had a lot of time to think about jumping into the water, more than the other soldiers who were standing in the front. I jumped off the side of the boat. I tried to swim towards the beach, but the bullet proof vest held me down. I could not open my eyes, but another soldier grabbed me and dragged me on to land. I lay there for 25 seconds
