Night Over Cotentin: Airborne Narrative Inspired by the Museum

Aircraft doors open into darkness. Coordinates are memorized, not visible. In minutes, plans begin to fragment.

Fragment 1: Drop

Some land close to objectives. Others scatter into flooded fields and hedgerow mazes.

Fragment 2: Regroup

Improvised teams form quickly, guided by terrain and urgency.

Fragment 3: Objective

Bridges and junctions become verbs: hold, delay, reconnect.

No perfect plan survives contact.
Intent survives when people adapt.

Fragment 4: Dawn

Dawn clarifies purpose: create time and space for seaborne landings to survive.
