Sub.Lt. John Edward Cama
Royal Navy HMS Dinosaur
from:Bishop Auckland
John Cama piloted a landing craft the day after the D-Day Normandy landings. As a veteran, he later returned twice to the D-Day landing beaches. John died in June 2008. Sadly, that was 6 years too soon to qualify for award of France's Legion d'honneur. In June 2014, on the 70th anniversary of the D-Day landings, the French president announced that the medal would be awarded to all British veterans who had fought for the liberation of France. However, the medal could not be awarded posthumously.
