Kongsdal drop zone
The parachutes open and slowly descend onto the drop zone where the reception team is waiting.
Intro
The plane airdropped 24 Fox-containers and a package of guns. The containers were very scattered, and many of the containers broke in mid-air and on the field. One helper reported “a hell of a job putting all of the pieces together.”
