80 Years Ago We Built 2 Harbors in Normandy in 10 Days

[Weatherman2020]

Your history is very weak. The Harbors were built over a period of months in England and towed to France. They were huge, the material requirements for any part of either Mulberry A or B were huge – 144,000 tons of concrete, 85,000 tons of ballast and 105,000 tons of steel, but one was quickly destroyed by a storm and the other severely damaged.

Are you saying no infrastructure in the world to build a small pier existed 3 months ago?

Well, let's try and be respectful of the upcoming D-Day anniversary and leave present day politics out of it. It's a bit beneath even you.
The Mulberry lasted all of two weeks before it was destroyed by a storm. An impressive feat no less for a world that was at war.

D-Day: Mulberries

Mulberries Due to the usual poor weather conditions at the three-mile stretch at Cherbourg, France, the British worked a few years before the invasion to conceive and design a unique way to keep the uninterrupted supply of men and materiel to combat the enemy. These designs resulted in two...

Didn’t even take a storm to wipe out Biden’s pier. And 80 years of technology had no advantage.

You have equipment floating on water. Inherently fragile. Be in 2024...or 1944.

Piers are not new technology. Stop spinning, you’re embarrassing yourself.

Mulberry Harbors, Churchill’s idea.
Compare that in contrast to Biden’s $320M pier for terrorists that took months to build and fell apart on its own before it even went into service.

Portable pre-fab ramps and stuff. Not intended to last, only to get troops and supplies ashore. We could do it today but we don't need to.

And do you really believe that was not planned ?

Piss Pants and the Hitler Impersonator have given us the the Good Cop - Bad Cop routine from the start .

Are there Gullibles who believe this absurd narrative ?
Are they going to tell us it is all bad luck and a tragic coincidence ?
Just like the Killer Shots .

Seems piers are high tech now here in the Age of Biden.

Back in 99 a friend was responsible for building this pier at Camp Pendleton. Said the only problem was getting all the envirowhacko regs taken care of.

Lasted all summer until it was intentionally dismantled.

 

[Weatherman2020]

We planned and prepared for that for a couple of years and spent what would be billions in today's money to do it.

Not really apples to apples here.

So preventing genocide is not worth the attentions and efforts. Got it.

I would guess no infrastructure in Gaza to build a small pier existed 3 months ago.

So you claim Joe only went to the local hardware store?

You have such an active imagination for a tRumpling!

Workers today are better than back then.

You’re the one claiming Joe pissed away all that money because he didn’t spend enough time and money on it.

Maybe it was God who destroyed the pier?
