The Logistic Build-Up to D-Day.  Much has been written about D-Day and the Normandy campaign, but how the troops and their equipment were marshalled, protected, fed, supplied, trained, hidden, armed, mended, etc, etc, has not been well documented.  Since “Tactics is the art of the logistically possible“ (attributed to Gen Omar Bradley), this seems an omission.  Chris Barrington Brown is building a website to explain the buildup, and enable users to see what happened in their area.  In trawling through hundreds of files from UK, US and Canadian archives he has brought together a collection of maps, diagrams, photographs and reports which tell that story.  You can find the work-in-progress at www.ddaybuildup.info
