  • The 1940s Society – Ham and Jam! The Capture, Defence and Release of Pegasus Bridge on D-Day – a talk by Neil Barber

    The capture of Pegasus Bridge is written into the folklore of British history. Its portrayal in the 1962 film ‘The Longest Day’ has influenced a vast number of historians. But just how accurate is the film? Neil Barber has studied the iconic role played by the 6th Airborne Division for over 30 years, and will provide us with an in-depth presentation analysing the events that actually happened at this vital D-Day target.




    Doors open at 7pm. Get there early – you know it makes sense! Refreshments available. Fascinating talks held every two months. For more information: Otford@1940.co.uk
