Pegasus Bridge

The first action on D-day was taking Pegasus bridge at 20 past midnight on the 6th. It was also the only action to go as planned. Major John Howard led this daring raid. The commandos, landing on Sword beach, linked up with them a bit later than planned. They were to be at the bridge at midday but didn't get there till 5 past.

In these videos we will visit D-day sites as if I was guiding you. We will actualy see more than if you were with me. Video allows tele-transporting a few miles in a few seconds.
The first video sets the scene for D-day. Why it was on the 6th June 1944 and why was it on the normandy beaches between Caen and the Cherbourg penisnsula.
