\n<\/span>Organized by location of the 101st Airborne’s battlefields, most of the photos are identified. In itself, this constitutes information that was not available until now. More than forty years of research and investigation have been necessary to identify them.
\n<\/span>This book is the combination of three collections of original vintage photographs and is without a doubt the most impressive collection in the world. Mark Bando, an American historian of the 101st Airborne, and Emmanuel Allain and Michel De Trez, the founders of the D-Day Experience Museum, pooled their knowledge and collections to create this book. Mark Bando began collecting this history when most of us were not born.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
