In this episode of Tigers by the Fire, the boys talk about the battle of Pegasus Bridge. Operation Dead Stick was a British Airborne glider assault in Normandy France the night before the D-Day Landings. The assault was one of two designed to capture two bridges to help prevent German Counterattacks on the morning of June 6, 1944. Pegasus Bridge is considered the first place in France to be liberated by Allied forces on D-Day.
