CARENTAN, Linking Omaha Beach - Utah Beach, Part 4 - First to Lead - Setting up the Headquarters in Normandy
This book retraces in images the epic journey of the 101st Airborne Division during its first combat jump in history, in Normandy. This fourth volume in a ten-part series totaling over 3,000 pages and 4,000 photos is dedicated to the establishment of command posts in the early hours of D-Day around DZ C, Sainte-Marie-du-Mont, and Hiesville.
Organized by the location of the 101st Airborne’s battle sites, most of the photos are identified. In itself, this represents information that was previously unavailable. More than thirty years of research and investigation were necessary to identify them.
This book is a combination of three collections of period photographs and is undoubtedly the most impressive collection in the world. To create it, Mark Bando, an American historian of the 101st Airborne, along with Emmanuel Allain and Michel De Trez, founders of the D-Day Experience Museum, pooled their knowledge and collections. Mark Bando began collecting testimonies when most of us were not even born.
235 x 295 mm, over 400 illustrations, 296 pages.
Bilingual edition: English-French.

DROP ZONE D, PREMISES OF THE ATTACK ON SAINT-COME-DU-MONT
