Luftlande Infanterie-Division stationed in the area behind Utah beach. This is based on work from the new book: Defending Normandy Vol.1A, which ooks at the role of the LXXXIV. A.K. in the evolution of the defence of Normandy, starting in 1941. It also examines infantry divisions in general and two in particular during the fighting in the summer of 1944. By focusing on formations, the series provides a deeper insight into the fighting than can be achieved by a traditional campaign approach. Vol.1B will continue with four more divisions.
