The best detail pictures on the IGN website are taken in 1959. They give a good idea of what is presumably Kangaroo field.
As quoted on page on of this thread "in two fields near Bayeux with the camp sited in the protection of a neighbouring orchard"..... What is described as "old equipment park" could easily be called, "two fields" with the hedgerows in the middle. The Orchard is also obvious......apple trees I presume for making "Calvados". The most interesting pics would obviously be those taken in August 1944 as they will probably show vehicles and stores everywhere. I hope the "Laurier Centre for Military Strategic and Disarmament Studies" in Ontario might have these, but even though they have thousands of pictures available online...I can't seem to find a search option(?). I will try to contact them tomorrow, to ask if they could at least tell me which "boxes" I should investigate. Does anyone have experience with searching for photograps in the LMH archive? http://lmharchive.ca/france/calvados/ Alex

Today we located the two fields where AWD Kangaroo converted the Priests into Kangaroos. I was there with Alex & friends in my F15A and James & friends in his C15TA in 1CACR markings.
More info and pics after Normandy! Hanno
