Major John Howard led the raid on Pegasus Bridge, the first place captured on D Day. His home was here at Garsington Rd, Oxford. The house with the empty driveway was his.

Excellent photos Mike. How did you find the place? You must be a hell of a map reader! Paul

Thanks. I just look on this as a resource. Somebody out there needs that picture, for whatever reason. I just happen to have been the one to have posted it! I've quite a few posted for the same reason of many parts of Normandy

The American Cemetery in Normandy. The resting place of over 9,000 young men who gave their lives that we may live in a better world.

Hi Pillboxs
I fear you are wrong. The new bridge was built in 1994. There has been no other bridge on this site except for these two. This original bridge is also peppered with schrapnel holes!

Hi Tim
There's a museum behind Omaha beach where they have photographs of some of these young men in much greater detail. They're not happy about anyone taking photographs of them, but...! If you post me your e-mail address I can forward some direct to you!mine is mike@ursandmike.karoo.co.uk I'd also direct you to a book - "The Bedford Boys" by Alex Kershaw, published by Pocket Books, ISBN O-7434-7791-X I guess you have seen through the carnage and feel the need for the humanity behind all this - the book's worth a read and has some good photos. I also have photos of specific graves and parts of the wall of the missing relevant to some of these young men. Their graves make it all the more poignant.
Mike
