  • 1 - Eisenhower’s masterplan and the Airborne assault
    Nov 8 2023
    Tuesday, 6 June 1944 was barely an hour old when Major John Howard and the men of D Company, Ox and Bucks Light Infantry, hurtled out of the night sky above Normandy. Behind them the largest invasion force ever to set sail was approaching the French coast. After four long and brutal years of Nazi occupation, the liberation of mainland Europe was underway – D-Day had begun.

  • 2 - The first landings and the Airborne hang on
    Nov 8 2023
    ”I was sitting in on the greatest show ever staged!” As the brave men and women of the Resistance hurried through the pre-dawn darkness, risking lives to sabotage the Germans, off the Normandy coast the first landing craft were ferrying Captain Moose Schroeder and his men towards Utah Beach – the Americans were coming. And just in time for their airborne compatriots, fighting desperately to survive inland.
