"June 1944. World War II. D-Day. One hundred eighty-two members of the
U.S. 82nd Airborne Division parachute into the French countryside—a full
18 miles southeast of their intended target. In the worst mis-drop
of the D-Day campaign, a group of soldiers are rattled to the core to
find themselves even deeper behind enemy lines than anyone had intended.
Miraculously, the citizens of Graignes vote to feed and shelter the
soldiers, knowing that the decision will bring them terrible punishment
if their efforts are discovered by the Germans. That day of reckoning
comes faster than anyone could expect. As a small German patrol passes through, the world’s war comes to their remote town in the
countryside, and for the next six days, the small band of American
paratroopers and French citizens must fight for their lives to hold back
2,000 enemy combatants." This is a pretty cool comic of a real world event so give it a read here and see what you think.
Worth a read for sure,
Brian
