Digging at a stately home the team find plenty of evidence of the American troops’ training including the rooms where they were billeted, unchanged since 1944 and Suggs learns about how the GIs made themselves at home before discovering the intense and dangerous training the troops were put through on the beaches of North Devon. Stephen drives a half-track tank used on D Day as he discovers more about the wealth of military kit and vehicles that the Americans brought with them.
