Carentan Modeling Guide and Historical Resource

From Matakishi’s Tea House comes a guide to modeling the French village of Carentan. From the author:

There is also a section explaining the quest to match the known historical facts with the reality of Carentan today including both period and modern photographs and an analysis of the fighting at the time.

Carentan is a riveting tale of historical research and a valuable modelling resource offered free by Matakishi’s Tea House.
