Talk:Beachhead
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I think we should merge the beachhead, bridgehead, and airhead articles into lodgement, since all are basically the same thing, just different subtypes differed by how they're conquered. Night Gyr 02:54, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
- I disagree. They are not the same thing and the tactics and methods of fighting them are different. For example see the difference between the use of airheads by the Chindits and the French at Dien Bien Phu. This is very different from the use of an airhead in Operation Market Garden, which was of course a bridhead. --Philip Baird Shearer 23:22, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
