Great pictures! Some of those are real classics.
This is the only footage of the actual landing:
Better quality
Cool! Believe it, or not, I hadn’t seen that footage before. Thanks for posting it.
Reminds me of the “Then and Now” books by Jean Paul Pallud . I have the “Battle Of The Bulge” book and apart from being brilliant it weighs a ton.
I’ll have to look for that-sounds intriguing!
I think there is a magazine as well ?
I’ve got the book in my Amazon wishlist, now. It’s not inexpensive, but the reviews are outstanding.
Very interesting link. Thank you for sharing this.
Glad you enjoyed it.
