samu01 Posted July 28, 2000 Share Posted July 28, 2000 I've been surfing the web looking for a company or battalion sized engagement with British regulars or para's with no sucess. Does anybody know where I could find some info of that sort, I'd also appreciate a map as i'm looking to make a historical re-enactment. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchy Posted July 28, 2000 Share Posted July 28, 2000 Try finding "Pegasus Bridge" by Stephen Ambrose. It is a good description of the battle with maps. I believe the unit involved was a company of the Ox and Bucks. ------------------ Webmaster http://www.trailblazersww2.org http://www.vmfa251.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mace Posted July 29, 2000 Share Posted July 29, 2000 One magazine that may help is 'After the Battle'. Each issue deals with 1 or 2 battles, includes maps, and has a lot of photos of the battle area then (in WW2) and now! Mace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark IV Posted July 29, 2000 Share Posted July 29, 2000 Try http://www.warlinks.com/memories/index.html The story of Les Dyer has an account and map of The Battle of Fontenay, June 25, 1944. There are many other British war stories at this site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
