The documentary sounds good! I do have a question due to contradictory information. Carlo D'Este in his book about the Sicily invasion said it was the largest amphibious operation ever mounted up to that time. According to Dragoon, southern France was the second largest U.S. landing operation (and became the largest operation of its kind). Now for the first time I'm hearing that Operation Torch "would be the largest amphibious operation in history." Most sources say Normandy was the largest. Well, I'm confused.---Peanuts
