Ivan Zaitzev Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 The picture is an aerial view of Marina di Campo in the Golfo di Campo, where the French forces landed in 1944 during the invasion of the island of Elba. I thought it might be an interesting scenario for Rome to Victory, or even a small campaign, but can't find a picture with better resolution. Maybe some of you guys can find the original with the code and date that is there? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wicky Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 (edited) Google maps - satellite view Then look at old photos of the bay to work out where modern developments / sprawl needs stripping out.

Kaunitz Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 (edited) Have you tried the NCAP? I assume the photo is from there and you can get a higher resolution picture (for $$$$): https://ncap.org.uk/search?view=map I did a quick search but couldn't find any sortie for 2 January 1944, I'm afraid. But there are other pictures of the region. Edited May 21, 2019 by Kaunitz 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
