Re: Pontoon Bridges and assault boats
BTW Carius and please accept my apologies for lateness of reply. You are quire right that the bridge in your post 765 is in France. I am 99% sure it is the bridge at Sully sur Loire, destroyed by the French in 1940, in the background.

It was rebuilt in 1943, bombed to b... in 1944, rebuilt again 1946-47 and finally collapsed again in 1985 due to extreme cold with poor quality of immediate post-war materials and a grossly overloaded lorry likely playing a part. It has since been replaced with a non-suspension bridge!
