Framed Portrait Photograph of Albert ‘Paddy’ Paddock. Overall size including frame 76cm x 56cm. This is his story: "I joined the Royal Navy and was trained as a wireless telegraphist. I volunteered for combined operations and on D Day we were on Juno beach as we directed fire from the battleship. We all suspected it was the Warspite, but as we only worked with codes, I can’t ever be sure. The 16inch shells that we directed in sounded like an express train travelling through a station as they roared over our heads and we were all fully aware that if we directed just one of these shells short, we would all get it".
