After The Battle #110 'The Riviera Landings' (2000)
For nearly 50 years, After the Battle has been presenting the history of the world's conflicts through 'then and now' comparison photographs. From the Zulu Wars through the First and Second World Wars to the Falklands, all are researched on the actual battlefields to show how they appear today.
The quarterly magazine concentrates on the Second World War, with comparison photographs adding a new dimension to recent history. In addition to major battles, local actions are explored, and other features include the recovery of aircraft and vehicles on land and at sea, the making of war films, and the preservation of military artifacts.
Operation ‘Dragoon’ – D-Day in the south of France in August 1944 is described in detail by Jean Paul Pallud, including the drive to the north. Audie Murphy’s Distinguished Service Cross – Audie’s close friend, David ‘Spec’ McClure, describes the action at Ramatuelle in August 1944 which led to the most decorated American soldier being awarded the DSC.
