Early in the morning, the C-47 is prepped for its flight accross the channel

We take off, and flying low head towards the french coast

The men on board are scared, looking out the windows for what may be the last time

The french coast comes into view from the cockpit, the men get ready to jump

The door is opened, and the men are scared, but brave, and ready to jump into combat

After the drop, we bank away and pull up to get out before we are shot down

And finally, we head home, praying for the safety of the soilders we just dropped


Hope you enjoyed!
 

Excellent story...and I must say...your shots are becmoing better day by day

Nice Jake...very good

Kind of sunny for the actual D-Day.

I was gonna say... yes, the weather that day was lousy, and many jump-planes and glider-towers got quite lost. Some airborne units found themselves on the ground not exactly where they planned...
But they chose the right plane for the job... nice tribute, Jake!

....And I was half expecting to see screenshots of you flying Duggy around France trying to cheer the Germans up with a big smile

LOL thanks guys.  Ya, I know that I was completely wrong on the weather, but i took what Real World weather gave me LOL.  Also, I flew from Dover to Calais and back, and thats not where the allies invaded, although they did have a Mock army at dover to confuse the germans.

Duggy Buddy? Seriously, that's over the top..

Nice shots though.

LOL!  I am duggy buddy!  I love duggy!
