Geocache Description:


Entre 1 heure et 3 heures le 6 juin 1944, partis de divers aérodromes du sud-ouest de l'Angleterre, environ 800 Dakota C-47 larguent 13 200 hommes et leur matériel.

Between 01.00 and 03.00 June 6, 1944, leaving from various airports in south-west England, about 800 Dakota C-47 dropped 13,200 men and their equipment.

Beaucoup sont tombés dans les marais en eau, coupés de leur division. Ils ont ensuite essayé de se regrouper, formant parfois des groupes provenant de différentes unités.

Many have fallen into the marsh water, cut off from their division. They then tried to regroup, sometimes forming groups from different units.
