The current Pegasus Bridge
click on photos to enlarge
When my people were in Normandy I got taken to the 6th Airbourne Museum and to Pegasus Bridge. I was even allowed in the museum with my people so had a good look around the place.
I hear the Guv's father was in the 6th Airbourne during WWII

Me and one of the Horsa gliders
The first house in France to be liberated by the 6th Airbourne
My people had coffee and something to eat at the Gondee Cafe on Pegasus Bridge and spoke to the current owner who was a little girl during the liberation of France, her father was the owner of the Gondee. The cafe remains in the same family ownership.......
