D-Day Armada by Nicolas Trudgian. \u003cp\u003eThere was never a greater concentration of air power deployed in an active theater of war as over the English Channel in May and June 1944. As D-Day approached, the USAAFs Ninth Air Force had assembled over 3500 aircraft a day, they were pounding enemy positions all the way from Pas de Calais to the coast of Normandy. 6 June 1944, arguably the most decisive single day in modern military history, saw the sky filled with waves of troop carrying aircraft towing gliders, dropping over 20,000 highly trained men in support of the massed sea-borne landings on the beaches below. Grabbing all the airspace they could find, the combat wings of the Ninth Air Force were creating havoc among the German ground forces as they scrambled to get troops and armor to the battlefront. \u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e  Signed by Captain Clayton Gross, \u003cbr\u003eColonel Maurice Long (deceased), \u003cbr\u003eMajor General Donald Strait (deceased), \u003cbr\u003eColonel Ricahrd Dick Denison, \u003cbr\u003eFirst Lieutenant Wayne E Downing, \u003cbr\u003eCaptain John L Minech, \u003cbr\u003eLieutenant Colonel Arthur Milow \u003cbr\u003eand \u003cbr\u003eLieutenant Colonel William Bill D Mitchell, in addition to the artist. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e  Limited edition of 25 artist proofs, with eight signatures. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Paper size 35 inches x 23.5 inches (89cm x 60cm)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Military Aviation Art Prints","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54135234920781,"sku":null,"price":250.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0810\/5449\/9149\/files\/2026NEWdhm2275.jpg?v=1781871900","url":"https:\/\/militaryaviationartprints.com\/products\/d-day-armada-by-nicolas-trudgian-ap","provider":"Military Aviation Art Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
