Detail of this photo - Landing Zone "A"

Detail of this photo - Landing Zone "B"

 

Judging by the few parachutes on the ground when this photograph was taken, this would be one of the first 'sticks' of the invasion. It clearly shows Landing Zone "A" [the parade ground] and Landing Zone "B" [the golf course]. Aircraft using "A" were flying anticlockwise, "B" clockwise. The smoke is from the bombardment of bottomside and Engineer Ravine, which continued during the parachute drop.
