We've just uploaded a major batch of geotagged photographs from Operation Veritable to the Project '44 beta web map. What you're looking at when you scroll through this post are the raw images. But on the map, each one is pinned to the exact location it was taken, tagged with its date, unit, and even some with the names of the soldiers. Here are some things that stood out in the photos: The men of Le Régiment de Maisonneuve at Moyland Castle on the 22nd of February 1945. There's something quietly striking about watching soldiers relax in a Renaissance castle in the middle of a winter campaign: Pte. Gaghe drinking tea out front, Pte. Lefebure fixing comms wire along the castle wall. These the photos that these were real people in a very strange situation.



Cassandra Kulukundis!!! Insanely well-deserved first ever win for Best Casting. Go down the list of non-professional actors in ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER.
