"Operation TopsidE" PICTORIAL  - On 16 February 1945, the 503rd PRCT dropped in to the most dangerous designated drop zone of WW2. The operation was extensively covered photographically from the air, and we now present a series of the photographs taken that morning. Most of these have been acquired from Fred Hill's collection.  Photographic prints from the original negatives are available from  Fred Hill, Photosmith.
