-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
June 6th, 1944: D-Day, a day of immense hope and trepidation, had finally dawned. It was time to go. But the night before the Allied armada crossed the Channel, airborne troops had already played a role crucial to the success of the entire operation — they had eased the task of the invaders by hindering the German response. This is what the men of the 6th Airborne had set out to accomplish in their surprise attacks behind the enemy lines at Pegasus Bridge and the Merville Battery, placenames now synonymous with the history of D-Day.

So began a war of positions that lasted for more than two months until the Allied breakout in August unleashed a pursuit of the retreating but defiant enemy, first to the Seine River, and on to the Ardennes, the Rhine, and finally the Baltic.

This book is published in partnership with the Pegasus Memorial in Ranville (France).
