For the Battle of Tarawa I am trying to find something that talks about them landing during neap tide so the high tide wasn't as high as expected.
For D-Day I am trying to find something that talks about the impact the tides (landing in low tide versus high tide) and and the moon (needing light for the airborne to hit their drop zones) had on the timing of the landings.
If any OGrs out there know of any documentaries that cover this topic I'd appreciate the help.
