Product Information

Tug boats move the "Phoenix"  intended protection against the sea for the port, Mulberry A, in front of Omaha Beach. Each Phoenix was equipped with a station of DCA, on top of the Phoenix, a Swedish 40mm Bofors gun, used against air attack.

The Mulberry harbours were two prefabricated or artificial military harbours, which were taken across the English Channel from Britain with the invading army in sections and assembled off the coast of Normandy as part of the D-Day invasion of France.
