Oshkosh 2022 | Douglas C-47 Skytrain Placid Lassie The C-47 “Placid Lassie” towed gliders over Normandy on D-Day, dropped paratroopers in Operation Market Garden, and resupplied the besieged city of Bastogne during the Battle of the Bulge. C-47s were the workhorses of WWII. They carried paratroopers, equipment, supplies, and just about anything that was needed quickly. Note: I post an image everyday at hankconrad.com.
