Description of the Book: D-Day Paratroopers: The Americans

For Advertisment
On the night of 5- 6 June 1944, US paratroopers of the 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions were dropped over the Cotentin peninsula, on the western part of the Normandy beachhead.

The uniforms, equipment and small arms of these men — immortalized by ‘Band of Brothers’ — are presented here in the sharpest detail, as well as their orders of battle and insignia.
