Hi, Red Dog,

good map of Drvar region you can find on http://www.mojdrvar.tk under link "Polozaj".

The only true about battle is from german sorces. And, Tito wasn't there. My grandfather drive him and Churchills son to the airport 2 days before the battle.

It is quite intersting that only 2 british survived and one of them was Churchills son Randolph smile.gif

Sorry for bad english

For those who don't know, that was the parachute and glider drop made by the SS 500th para battalion to capture Tito (Yugoslavian partisan leader) in May 1944.

Before I go through all the trouble of working on this, has anyone already done this battle?

If not, anyone know of a good source of maps for Drvar and the surrounding area?

I've tried searching, but all I can find are political maps.

I think this will make for a very challenging battle.
