  Information on the 8th Naval beach battalion
Posted by: Pierre.hacquard - 03-11-2025, 02:07 PM - Forum: LOOKING FOR... - No Replies

Hello everyone,

I'm Pierre from France. I’m a re-enactor and collector. I live in one of the towns where Allied troops landed in 1944 for Operation Dragoon: Saint-Raphael. 
Recently, I have become interested in the 8th naval beach battalion which participated in and supervised the landing in the Saint Raphael sector (Green, Blue, Yellow and Red beach). I already read the different topics on the forum about it. But the informations are rather concise. This is why I am calling on your help to have any information and photos in order to be as accurate as possible in my future reenactment of the unit and maybe writing of an article on this subject.


Thanks in advance,

Best,

Pierre

Hi everyone:

I'm busily working away on the revamped site for VI Corps, a huge project which will take a several months to complete due to the large amount of data collected over the years. The revamp will contain everything you see before you on the main site (www.6thcorpscombatengineers.com), but the formatting will be even more user and mobile friendly. One thing that will get the biggest overhaul is the Engineer Gallery, and I can't wait to share that with you. 

So, hold onto your hats and helmets, and thanks for your patience while we go through the changes.

Essayons, 
Marion

  Digital Version of No Bridge Too Far
Posted by: PDP2020 - 07-22-2024, 10:35 PM - Forum: MARION'S NEWS n UPDATES n BABBLINGS... - Replies (1)

Several years ago, I created a two-part documentary, No Bridge Too Far. At the time it was published, it was only available via Create Space/Amazon on DVD. When they no longer supplied DVD's online, it fell by the wayside. However, there's great news!  Beginning last week, the documentary is now available via an MP4 (video) file and can be downloaded here for $19.99.

All the best, Marion
