Please bear in mind that this is not a dig against That's All Brother or even Wiki, this is just a factual problem.

"On the morning of June 6, That's All, Brother led 800 planes that dropped over 13,000 American soldiers of the 101st Airborne Division's 502nd Parachute Infantry Regiment onto the French beaches."

1) The 101 was about 10k all in. 2) The 502 was a regiment, not a division. 141.156.187.235 (talk) 01:11, 6 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

That's me sort of trying to reconcile different things said by the sources. I think I'll just change it to the generic "paratroopers". Daniel Case (talk) 03:27, 6 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

"...onto the French beaches"? I thought the American paratroopers were dropped inland on the Cotentin Peninsula, to capture bridges and causeways. Where exactly where thousands of paratroopers dropped onto French beaches? 213.205.240.169 (talk) 07:29, 6 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You are right, I've changed 'beaches' to 'coast'. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.149.53.142 (talk) 07:45, 6 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
