My main project to date has been on Southampton, Portsmouth and the Isle of Wight and Ihave now started extending to include the Normandy beaches on D-Day.
I have suprisingly found a wealth of sea, land and air craft of the period. many from "coutumariee" but plenty of others as well.
I really want to build something to show the size and depth of the happenings on D-Day and I am just skirting around the edges.
What would be really helpful at the moment would be to build up a library of things like the sounds of war and anything like shell holes, explosions, things being blown apart.
I realise that this a very big request but every time I have asked I have been lucky in people pointing me in the right direction- please let me know of any thing you can think of.
I will eventually look to find things like the German flag of this period which I notice people have strong opinions on, and I understand that completely.
The purpose of my tableau is to show anyone interested just how awesome were people of my father's generation and it gives me a real chance to understand a little more on just how dreadful it must have been.
Anyone intersted in helping out ??
