WWII Gliders - 01/31/24
A good link in RealClearHistory today on one of the more neglected topics of WWII, with a link to what promises to be a good book.
Check out the photo in the link showing the pilot and copilot sitting in their flimsy cage of perspex (??) and plywood, the point of impact if anything at all went wrong. Survive that, and you were combat infantry in a drop zone.
