National Archives
Here's what it says:
"Our landings in the Cherbourg-Havre area have failed to gain a
satisfactory foothold and I have withdrawn the troops. My decision to
attack at this time and place was based upon the best information
available. The troops, the air and the Navy did all that Bravery and
devotion to duty could do. If any blame or fault attaches to the attempt
it is mine alone."
