Outstanding. Love the way the scripts from the Movie are incorporated into the presentation. Excellent work done on the Diorama. Hopefully I will be able to visit in June of 2025. To much of waiting list with Tour group for 2024 that is the 80th Anniversary of the event.

My step great grandfather was at the battle when it was captured, later moving on to the Bulge and the Rhine Crossing, all of which were glider landings. I've been to Pegasus a few times, and I hope to go again soon since I was quite young the first times. I now re-enact the 2nd Oxf. & Bucks (the battalion which captured the bridge) in his honour, I'd also suggest going to IWM Duxford, as they have the original model of the bridge used for briefing in their airborne display if you haven't already.

Muy bueno el diorama, un pequeño aporte, según tengo entendido el primer Horsa "aterrizó" sobre las mismas alambradas lo que ayudó a salvar el obstaculo. Hubiese sido un gran detalle

Haha 😂 Matosas … it’s a collage of views. Never intended to be one singe diorama as it would have had to have been massive. It was the feel and sentiment that I was after in creating this model. Thanks for looking though 😉

Haha! It’s a canal 😂 I had plans to use the right hand side, where the glider is, for another scene. But had a change of mind mid build and turned the bridge around 🤷‍♂️ It’s more collage of views than an accurate representation. After all, Caen isn’t that close either 😆

Schön gebaut, aber das war es dann auch schon. Geschichtlich stimmt hier gar nichts! Die 2 Bunker, welche hier so schön hindrapiert wurden, gab es nicht; ebensowenig war eine 7,5er PaK, noch eine 2cm Vierling an der Brücke stationiert. Als einzigen befestigten Unterstand gab es den Keller des 1943 abgerissenen Hauses des Brückenwärters. Diesen Keller hat man stehen lassen und die Decke mit Beton aufgegossen und somit zusätzlich verstärkt. An Geschützen gab es lediglich eine 5cm PaK, welche aber niemand zu bedienen in der Lage gewesen war und die deshalb auch nicht besetzt war. Insgesamt standen zur Bewachung der Bénouville= und der Ranville=Brücke lediglich 18 Mann zur Verfügung. 2 Mann gingen auf der Bénouville=Brücke Wechselstreife- der Rest lag im Unterstand und hat geschlafen! Entgegen dem Film und den Aussagen der Briten gab es an der Brücke KEINERLEI Widerstand! Im ganzen Gegenteil hat man den Männern während der ganzen Ausbildungszeit wahre Horrormärchen über die Deutschen erzählt, sodaß Major Howard und seine Männer vor lauter Angst schon beim Verlassen der Lastensegler wild um sich und dabei einen eigenen Leutnant erschossen haben. Die Sprengsätze, welche im Film "D=Day" so theatralisch entfernt wurden, waren gar nicht da, denn sie wurden ein paar Tage vor der Invasion von den Deutschen wieder entfernt. Am westlichen Ufer fehlt außerdem das Café und die Trasse der Kleinbahn. Was auch als Minuspunkt zu bewerten ist, ist der Umstand, daß die Bénouville=Brücke in diesem Diorama ganz offensichtlich einen kleinen Baggersee überspannt, aber nicht den Caen=Kanal. Schade, daß ein so dankbares Thema mit einem ganz hervorragenden Modell der Bénouville=Brücke so nachlässig und ohne die nötige Fachkenntnis umgesetzt wurde. Wäre ich Lehrer und einer meiner Schüler präsentierte mir ein solches Machwerk, würde ich sagen: "Ungenügend! Sechs, setzen!!!"

@@tourdeairfix I've been fascinated with this mission for 40yrs, I'm surprised he didn't pull you up on the lack of damage on the front of Jim Wallwork's horsa. My personal favourite is his suggestion brotherbridge was killed by his own men. Love the build and mixed in from the movie (which also had inaccuracies lol), nice touch with the German falling into the canal.

@@Pte.Fletcher I'm not, I love the film I'm just a stickler for accuracy. For instance, Richard Todd who played major John Howard in the film dropped into Normandy and was on the bridge on the 6th of June so his acting and weapons handling was spot on. So where was your step grt grandad on d day?
