I knew my father (then Lt. Wilburn Grant) was with the 503rd in 1943 and I heard him tell about this jump many times. Then when I discovered this video, I was so thrilled to locate his picture. He's at the right of the frame at 1:14 on the film.
I'm writing about someone who was in Nadzab and found it hard to imagine, so I'm grateful for this video which shows the period of time I want to know about.
