Description: A STUNNING TRIBUTE TO THE MEN OF THE 101st AIRBORNE DURING WWII EVE OF DESTINYby Richard Taylor The men of one of the US Airborne's most illustrious units – the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne – the famous 'Band of Brothers', take inventory of their equipment during the early evening of 5 June 1944. Alongside them on the hard-standing of Upottery Airfield in Devon the C-47s of the 438th Troop Carrier Group with their hastily-applied invasion stripes, stand primed, ready to carry the elite unit to Normandy in the early hours of D-Day.
