The paratroopers selected from the United States and Canada's No. 1 Special Service Team have experienced strict night skydiving training, received highly rigorous fighting training, and various fighting, survival and skydiving training in bad weather.

So even if they were allowed to parachute on a plane with a speed of 150 mph, these pilots could easily and confidently perform first-class parachutes from the night sky covered with tracer bombs.

In addition, they also use fake paratroopers when they parachute to disperse the German anti-aircraft gun group and anti-aircraft machine gun group.

However, before departure, in addition to the members of the United States and Canada's 1st Secret Service, this time the airborne combat; the British and American troops also dispatched more than 15,000 paratroopers to cooperate with the airborne combat.

Moreover, each batch of airborne flight brigade will be equipped with airborne navigators to prepare signals and pilot navigation.

In order to ensure the accuracy of the airborne routes of British and American paratroopers, British and American navigators will use Ureka devices, aviation signal marks and other things in short distances to guide the correct direction of the route. They will even dispatch patrol boats and submarines to point out the direction of their journey.

Moreover, in order to avoid the discovery of the German army, these German troops used radio silence to keep quiet.

If they encounter cloud dumps, they will also receive early warning from the paratrooper team.

However, sometimes they did not get a warning in time and rushed into the cloud pile.

However, the biggest advantage of skydiving at night is that those timid soldiers did not see the land under the plane when they were skydiving, so in the dark, their tension and fear before landing will disappear a lot.

However, before parachuting, all the main British and American parachuting troops would still allow the airborne navigators to enter the airdrop zone first and indicate the airdrop area for the flight team. They would also use the Ureka radio automatic direction finding machine and Horofen light to mark a large T-shaped shape on the ground, and then let the paratroopers know where they were going to skydiving and assemble.

Of course, although this method is also good, once the flight team enters the clouds, they will also jump to the wrong T-shaped skydiving location marked by the navigator.

Because when those flying teams emerge from the clouds, these flying teams either deviate from the direction or fly too high or too low.

Therefore, once the airdrop deviates from the direction, the paratroopers who land on the air will experience many tragic situations, and casualties or they may not reach the battlefield to fight at all.

When the transport team or glider troops headed to Italy or Sicily, many paratroopers, including the 1st Special Service Team of the United States and Canada, either sat quietly, silently thinking about their thoughts in their hearts, or slept casually on the cabin floor, or praying to God.

There were even soldiers reciting the Bible, laughing and chatting casually, eating and drinking...

Because these British and American officers and soldiers are using the best way to relieve their fears and relax their whole body.

Because many people are very afraid that they will die in this airborne operation, and even the pilots are very nervous.

Because many of these pilots have not received night flight training, as well as how to avoid the counterattack of German anti-aircraft gun groups and fighter groups at night, and even night training under severe weather has not been tried.

The worst thing is that the planes they are flying now are pitifully few and their armor is very weak.

Moreover, the fuel tank of their plane still has no protection, and once it is hit, it will immediately catch fire and explode.

Although transporting a paratrooper unit of an airborne division requires at least 400 C-47 transport aircraft; this scale seems to be huge, these transport aircraft are used to transport goods and personnel, and their combat effectiveness is very poor.

They are not the opponent of the German fighter group and anti-aircraft artillery group. Even if the British and American flight teams are organized according to one formation for every 50 aircraft, none of the pilots who know the inside story are cheerful and relaxed.

When the leader pilot did not navigate the aircraft group behind through the lights on the transparent pilot cabin, these leader pilots were extremely nervous, and they were worried that they would suddenly encounter German searchlights, tracer bullets, anti-aircraft gun groups, fighter groups and other unexpected things.

For example, the terrifying German missile cluster, as well as the harsh weather and thick clouds block the view.

"How long will it take for us to reach Italian airspace?"

In the cockpit of a transport plane, pilot Tom said to his companions.

"It should be soon!"

"We have been flying for a long time and should be able to reach our destination soon!"

His companion driver Gbagbo responded.

But as soon as he finished speaking, he heard some thrilling explosions in the distance, which came over me in a sensational way.

Then there were many searchlights, tracer bullets, and shelling sounds...
