This fourth volume of a comprehensive five-part work on D-Day covers every aspect of aerial operations on and behind the beaches at ‘Omaha’ and ‘Utah’ beaches on 6 June 1944. It might be imagined that the passing years would blunt the outlines of the experience but the D-Day veterans do not forget. Their accounts convey the chaos, terror and hysteria as the first salvos of German fire clanged off the landing craft, in language that is all the more powerful for its terseness and simplicity.
