What happened on a landing beach after COPP had guided in the first wave of landing craft?
The short answer is: logistics.
This film was made before the Allied invasion of Sicily in July 1943. It uses animated maps and live action to help explain the role, structure and organisation of a beach maintenance area during the early stages of an amphibious landing.
The film is available through the Imperial War Museums archive - the ending suggests that there was originally more footage that has not been digitised.
