Getting back to invading Normandie (note the change in spelling (French)); I have now visited most of the DDay landing beaches and although thousnds of Aussie soldiers died there , not a mention of us except one very small mention something about the RAAF (Royal Australian Air Force). To me the most interesting was not one of the beaches at all; it was the Pegasus Bridge. which was taken by Pommy commandos from Dorset right on schedule and was actually the pivot for the whole thing. <br /> <br />This was right at the northern end and they had to exert so much pressure that the Germanshad to move the forces north to stop them. <br /> <br />When they did this the Americans at "Omaha" i think really got into gear and the whole thing moved like a big axis and the day was won. <br /> <br />Rgds ian
