Описание:

This is the first volume in the highly regarded Engineers Battlefields Tour set. One of the best sources of primary material when researching any military campaign are the documents that were made at the time, and this Royal Engineers account of the campaign in Europe 1944-1945 is fundamental to an understanding of the overall picture of operations, and the maps add even more to that picture.

Prepared in 1946, this volume was designed for succeeding generations of Royal Engineers who would visit the battlefields of Europe after the war. Its purpose was to demonstrate the problems faced by the Royal Engineers in the major campaigns of the Second World War and the problems they used to solve them. The operations chosen for inclusion in this tour were done so because they were regarded as typical examples of engineering tasks.

This work gives details of all operations by the Royal Engineers during D-Day and up to the Seine crossing at Vernon. It covers I Corps plans for the assault, operations of 6 Airborne Division, the assault by 3 British Division, bridging the Caen Canal and the River Orne, the construction of airfields in France, the capture of Le Havre and the Seine crossing at Vernon. There are many maps and photographs in the book which enhance the experience of reading this account.
