   From: myths@ic24.net   
      
   ! gather from a comment in an anecdote that in 1944 there was a a ban,   
   until about 10 weeks after D-Day, on general travel south in England   
   because of troop movements to Normandy .   
      
   Is it possible to confirm when it ended?   
      
   Would next-of-kin of hospitalised seriously wounded soldiers have been   
   Exempt from the restriction (i.e. able to travel to visit) or would   
   they have had to wait?
