Cazaly, Musa Charles Elliott, Lieutenant-Commander, Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve, 1903-1985.

The papers contain a large number of charts, maps, reconnaissance photographs and intelligence reports, all of which are marked "Secret" or "Top Secret" . These relate mainly to the D-Day landings, showing the various landing zones, enemy positions, etc, but there are also some charts showing the coastline of Sicily prior to invasion. Also present in the collection is an iluminating after-action report by Lt-Commander Cazaly to his C.O., explaining how his flotilla fared during the D-Day landings.
