Description

The success of the D-Day landings on June 6, 1944 depended on thousands of troops carrying out their mission and the seamless coordination of the amphibious landings with paratrooper and glider assaults. The troops not only had to be trained up ready for their own roles, but to work alongside other troops, often coordinating activities and communicating with other troops while in unfamiliar terrain and under fire. This pocket manual brings together excerpts from Allied manuals used in the preparation for D-Day, including amphibious landings and managing beachheads, pathfinder, paractrooper and glider pilot training, and infantry and armored fighting in the bocage countryside.Table of Contents

I'm a longtime travel journalist, and the French government invited me to Normandy 4 times. I went each time. This book is among my MOST treasured, as it is full of nifty stuff that I've never seen or read anywhere. One of the biggest, most hazardous facts on D-Day, were all the beach obstacles. This mesmerizing little book not only has fascinating info about them, but also nifty drawings and explanations including measurements. There are also riveting stories and related info about where, how and why of the best ways for parachute drops. Yes, some might consider it a bit "technical," but if you're into D-Day info and Trivia, this almost pocket sized gem of a book, will intrigue and fascinate you. It will, for sure, be a highly valued addition to whatever D-Day stuff you already have. Get it as soon as you can, and you'll see what I mean.
