D-DAY THE AIR BATTLE
Book Type: C, O By Ken Delve. Operation ���Overlord��� ��� the allied invasion of occupied France ��� began in the opening minutes of 6 June 1944. By the end of the day a bridgehead had been won and gradually the Allied Forces extended their grip. None of this would have been possible without air power.ξIn the weeks and months leading up to D-Day the RAF and USAAF waged a concerted campaign against fighter bases, troop depots, road and rail junctions and ammunition and fuel dumps: any target that would impede the Germans��� ability to repel the liberating forces.ξThis book ��� the product of detailed research in original documents ��� tells the story of this air campaign, with the aid of nearly 200 archive photographs. 192 pp. ![]() |
