Auto Credit Based on TheUltimatePlaneLover's Douglas C-47 Skytrain - Paratrooper

The Douglas C-47 Skytrain played a vital role in the D-Day landings, primarily by transporting paratroopers and towing gliders. Over 1,000 C-47s were involved in dropping paratroopers of the 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions, totaling over 13,000 men. Additionally, C-47s were used to tow gliders carrying troops and equipment. https://ibb.co/YBJ46tQt Not mine I just added a better livery I want to apologize for not adding the right credit as I've been busy with work and uploading videos
