Tour Scotland photograph of Loch Fyne near Inveraray, Scotland. Around a quarter of a million troops trained at HMS Quebec, No.1 Combined Training Centre, Inveraray in amphibious landing techniques on the shores of Loch Fyne prior to the D-Day landings. Some 30 senior officers, each with a staff vehicle and radio also took part in a top secret deception exercise to convince the Germans that a major sea assault was being prepared but could not be launched until at least September 1944.
