Here’s something I don’t think I’ve ever seen before:
That’s the Crabs from assault group
Apple stuck on Red beach, with the bridge from AVRE A2B between them and still resting on LCT 1005’s bow ramp.
This is a still from a video that somebody posted on Facebook. As I don’t do Facebook, I asked the person who told me about it to download it for me, and he very kindly did. However, those of you who don’t have any qualms about visiting that site can
view the video here. This part starts at 2:29.
Other things of interest concerning the Westkapelle part of Operation
Infatuate are pictures of the approach right from the start, LVTs wading ashore at 2:22, and troops and vehicles in Westkapelle from 2:32.
