DDay Landing Craft How 4126 'Ugly and Unorthodox' Allied Craft made the Normandy Landings Possible The book "DDay Landing Craft How 4126 'Ugly and Unorthodox' Allied Craft made the Normandy Landings Possible" tells the story of the development and use of an unusual and innovative landing craft during World War II. The book focuses on the role of the Higgins LCVP (Landing Craft Vehicle Personnel) 4126, which was designed and built by the American company Higgins Industries in just six weeks. This craft was used to transport troops and equipment from ships to the beaches of Normandy during the D-Day invasion, and its design and construction were critical to the success of the operation. The book begins with an overview of the historical context of the D-Day invasion, explaining how the Allies needed a reliable and efficient way to transport troops and supplies to the beaches of Normandy. The author describes how the traditional landing crafts of the time were not suitable for the task at hand, as they were slow, unstable, and prone to capsizing. In response, the US Navy turned to the Higgins LCVP 4126, which was designed specifically for this purpose.
