May 1943 it transferred to form part of 6th Airlanding Brigade, 6th Airborne Division, in preparation for the liberation of North West Europe. The 1st Battalion landed in Normandy by glider on the evening of 6 June 1944 at LZ N, near Ranville, and was initially deployed to extend the southern sector of the bridgehead.

The battalion remained in Normandy until September when it returned to the UK, but was redeployed, along with other units of 6th Airborne Division, to halt the German offensive in the Ardennes during the winter of 1944-45.

It later took part in Operation Varsity, which established a bridgehead across the Rhine into Germany, and took part in the subsequent advance to the Baltic.
