About the C-47 Skytrain:

One of the most iconic planes of the Second World War, the Douglas C-47 dropped thousands of paratroopers from the night sky onto the beaches of Normandy on June 6, 1944, playing a crucial role in the transport of troops and supplies throughout every theatre of the war. The Skytrain, as it became known, was crewed by four airmen and flew in “serials” of up to 50 planes during combat missions. It remains in service in countries around the world to this day.
