On battle plan maps it was rightly identified as an important road junction that the defending Germans could have used to carry out rapid counter attacks directed towards the Utah and Omaha beacheads. It was therefore strategically imortant to attack and quickly occupy the village with American airborne troops to support the landings. In the early hours of June 6, 1944, paratroopers of the famous 82nd and 101st US Airborne Divisions secured the small French town following a period of intense fighting. The contribution made by the American paratroops has been widely recognised and celebrated in numerous movies from ‘The Longest Day‘ made in the 1960s, to the most recent ‘warmovies‘.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Italeri","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51481443893515,"sku":"6199","price":71.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0777\/1809\/4091\/files\/italeri-6199-sainte-mere-eglise-battle-set-1.jpg?v=1750697654"},{"product_id":"italeri-7077-1-72-sd-kfz-251-8-ambulance","title":"Sd.Kfz. 251\/8 Ambulance","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Sd.Kfz.251 half-track was an armored fighting vehicle (AFV), which was deployed by the Wehrmacht on all operational fronts during the Second World War.
