Re: On This Day

At 0016 hours (12:16AM) a large wooden glider w/ 28 troops of the British 6th Airbourne Division, under the command of Major John Howard, landed in between two bridges,a canal bridge,and a road bridge on the Caen canal and the river Orne, respectively.
Four other gliders landed almost all on top of the first one; all within two minutes.The soldiers stormed the two bridges,killing,capturing, or driving off the garrison of fifty riflemen within ten minutes.

These were the first shots fired in the liberation of France: D Day, June 6th 1944
