Hi Patrick, My dad, William "Bill" Burgess, Jr. also served aboard LCT 528 during the Normandy invasion. He's currently living in Harrogate, Yorkshire, England with my step mom Elizabeth. Dad was a PO 3rd Class Motor Machinist Mate (discharged in '45 as a 2nd Class) and was 19 or 20 during the invasion. Please go to the attached link to see an article by Fr. Pat Kemp who also served aboard LCT 528 with pictures of the crew (my dad was 2nd from the left):
