SAINTE-MÈRE-ÉGLISE - Framed Collectors Piece
by Simon Smith
In the early hours of 6 June 1944, Troops of the US 82nd Airborne, 505th PIR land right in the heart of Sainte-Mère-Église - engaging in a ferocious firefight with the German defenders. Before the break of dawn, Ste-Mère-Église would become the first town in Normandy to be liberated by the Allies on D-Day.
Mounted and framed to full conservation standards to include an 82nd Airborne pin, this dramatic piece is personally autographed by two 82nd Airborne veterans who took part in the capture of the town, guaranteeing a lasting link to this famous episode in history:
- Captain DEAN McCANDLESS
- Staff Sergeant LOE A. DUMOUCHELLE
