Canadian Minesweeping Squadron 31, supported by the U.S. destroyers U.S.S. Emmons (DD-457) andU.S.S. Doyle (DD-494), cleared a bombardment support lane to the Normandy coast during the night before H-Hour. The opening of the attack broke the tense silence in the scattered moonlight on Pointe-de-Hoe, while pathfinders dropped their red and green markers. All during these interminable hours of sweeping, they expected all hell to hit, but it never did.
