Depending on which time zone we’re using (daylight savings or not, etc), it’s now 19:14 here. That makes it 00:14 in the UK. In two minutes … (00:16 local) Major Howard’s “Horsa” glider hits the ground at Pegasus Bridge. The monument now stands to mark the spot where his glider hit, astonishingly close to the target bridge. In this photo I tried to get the angle Howard would have seen as he first looked at the bridge. Of course the bridge that stands there now is an enlarged replacement, it wasn’t night, and no one was shooting at me. 🙂
