Still on Parade

The rows at Ranville running away under a sky that was doing all the work that evening.

Most of the men here are British, and a great many are 6th Airborne — the division that took Pegasus Bridge in the first minutes of the invasion and the Merville Battery a few hours later. Ranville was the first village in France to be liberated. They are buried a few hundred yards from what they took.

They lie in ranks with the dressing perfect. Even dead, they are still on parade.
