The Australian Amphibious Force prepare to take the beach under the cover of darkness... 👀
As we reflect on the D Day landings, it’s worth considering the enduring complexity of amphibious operations. Link below is to the Joint Staff study for Op CAUSEWAY: developed in 1944 for a potential operation to seize Formosa from Japanese forces.
