Synopsis
Trained in the use of the Eureka radar, holophan lights, and colored ground panels, the pathfinders dropped thirty minutes before the main airborne landing to provide ground guidance for successive airborne jumps. The concept of the pathfinders proved successful and they were used during the remainder of World War II. The story of the airborne pathfinders and the vital part they played in airborne operations during the Second World War has rarely been told. In this new book, Jeff Moran tells the story of the operations they led, the equipment used much of it unique to the pathfinders and has memorialized them by noting, in many cases, the individual teams of pathfinders., Trained in the use of the Eureka radar, holophan lights, and colored ground panels, the pathfinders dropped thirty minutes before the main airborne landing to provide ground guidance for successive airborne jumps.

- m***6 (18)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe item arrived quickly, and I didn’t need to contact the seller at all. While the outer packaging was pretty beat up—likely due to a longer-than-usual transit time—I don’t hold that against the seller. The glass inside was completely intact, which shows it was packaged very well. All the parts were in excellent condition. I’m beyond happy with both the product and the price. It’s exactly as described, if not better!Reply from: s.o.b.e.420- Feedback replied by seller s.o.b.e.420.- Feedback replied by seller s.o.b.e.420.Thank you so much for the positive feedback. I was worried for a minute, but then I’ve been through this before where I’ve had packages damaged and the glass gets there undamaged because I pack it pretty good lol I look forward to doing business with you again SOBE420 out.Cheech - 18" 7mm Pink Beaker (#396368897050)
