We arrived in the early PM because wave action in the bay at Santorini was unsafe for the elder crowd. We had left Athens/Pireaus the day before.
I visited a private museum in Heraklion offering a largee collection of photos of the battle between German airborne troops and elements of the British 8th Army. The Germans won but sustained such heavy losses during the battle that Hitler decided never to use them again in any significant battle.
