Maisy Batterie 134 

maisy_batterie_small.jpgMaisy Battery was one of the largest and best preserved German defensive positions in the invasion area. Situated in the Omaha Sector it has today more than 2 miles of original German trenches that you can walk through. It has building after building which you can enter and as the site is still being uncovered it is continually developing... more and more trenches and bunkers are uncovered each year - it is the largest site of its type you can visit in Normandy and yet the most secretive... Go and look through your books and see which ones you have that mention Maisy.... there are not many because for the Germans it was Top Secret, and for the allies its history was lost because of the 60 year secrecy law. As the site was buried after the battle it became lost to historians and forgotten for 63 years.  You can now walk through original German trenches in the footsteps of the brave US Rangers.Go into bunkers where the Rangers had to blow the doors off to get inside. The bunkers have all been cleaned out and you can walk into them all. You can look through gun ports and stand inside German machine gun tobruks as the defenders did.  Maisy is unique among sites in the invasion area as it has guns and trenches in situ. You can stand alongside original 150mm German Howitzers under camouflage netting - just as the Germans did and imagine for yourselves what was going through the minds of the US Rangers who were faced with this formidable part of the Atlantic Wall.  Maisy Battery is simply the best site you will visit on your Normandy Trip.

The Royal Logistic Corps (RLC) was formed in 1993 from the amalgamation of The Royal Pioneer Corps, the Army Catering Corps, the Royal Army Ordnance Corps, the Royal Corps of Transport and the Postal and Courier Section of the Royal Engineers. At the same time the RLC Museum was established as the Regimental Museum for the newly formed Corps.

It tells the story of logistical support to the British Army from the time of Oliver Cromwell to the present. Here the visitor can examine how over the last 500 years the soldier has been transported, fed, supplied with arms and equipment and kept in touch with loved ones.
