American paratroopers, with U.S. flags emblazoned on their shoulders for easy identification and bayonets fixed, take cover along a dirt road near the town of La Motte, France, on August 15, 1944.

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Apparently there is at least 2 places in France icon

by the name of "La Motte" which can be a little confusing if you don't realise and if, like me, you find the other place of the same name on the opposite side of the country.
