Chill out 'n' talk about anything. Have a giggle, play a game or have a rant and try not to fall off the Soap Box. (NOTE Standard Forum Rules apply).

The history of D-Day in 80 objects

Post by iggie »

This is an interesting site, part of the D-day Museum, which tells the story of the invasion, the run up to it, and the aftermath using a selection of artifacts. Although it is aimed primarily at schools (my suspicion, based on the language used), there are some thought-provoking items and insights that may appeal to some here :grin:

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

Very interesting, and well done, IMHO.

I have a "Katy" ambulance (to do sometime), and the medical kit (#46) is of interest for some detailing - hear that aftermarket folks ?
