James Holland and Al Murray are journeying through US Airborne territory. They stop to hone their field craft and  brew up by picturesque Normandy fields just inland from Utah beach and near the Richard Winters Memorial at Sainte-Marie-du-Monte. This historic ground was traversed on D-Day by the legendary 101st and 82nd Infantry of the US Airborne division. Join James and Al as they dive into discussions about the challenging bocage terrain and the importance of landing in the correct drop zones. They explore the 101st Airborne's advance to Carentan, the hurdles of bolstering ground troops with tanks and armour, and the pivotal role played by the Sherwood Rangers. Plus, they give us a sneak peek of their next adventure at Brecourt Manor, the site of the famous Easy Company action led by Richard Winters so memorably recreated in Band of Brothers.
