W G Felgate. Royal Marines.

[AsMcP]

I have recently received the WW2 service record of my father-in-law William George Felgate for his period of service from Sept 1942 until his demob in June 1946.
He was in the Royal Marines, service number X114928. Unfortunately it gives very little detail of what he did and where, just a list of shore bases where he trained in landing craft operation. His medal card, however, says that he was in 504 Flotilla and I have since found that they took the 5th US ranger battalion to Omaha beach on D-Day. Is it likely that he went ashore or just put the boat in reverse and went back to fetch more? It also mentions that he was in 904 LCS(M) from August 1944 to September 1945. Also during this period he was said to be at either COPRA or 905 Flotilla. We know that he went to Burma, or that area, as he qualified for the Burma Star medal but there is no mention of this and I’m not sure where to look.
I would appreciate help from anyone more versed in these matters than I.
