Read excerpt
Okay, now that I have finally recovered from whatever I caught, I am going to pick up where I left off and continue posting on Operation Market.Some of the glider pilots did not file their mission reports until October.

It is important for me to present both sides of an issue. There are differing views of the Horsa glider just as there are on the CG-4A. Matt has done a deep dive to address many aspects of the Horsa, its construction and
