WW2, June, 1944 and the largest amphibious invasion in war-time history begins.
Known as the D-Day Landing, the liberation of western Europe begins right here on the beaches of France as over 130,000 allied troops swarm the beach heads. This number will grow to over 1 million soldiers and in a few short months the axis forces will be pushed out and defeated in one of the most well known and prominent campaigns of this or any other war.
You, and your platoon of US Marines are among the first ashore for the D-Day landing and made it to the beach head. You then moved on to a rendezvous a few short kilometres inland. Establishing a safe zone around the beach landings is vital for the initial stages of the invasion. The Enemy forces are dug in and waiting. It’s your mission to clear the area of enemy troops and take command of this critical location in order to establish a base.

As a part of a three-day camp the full squad visited Delta Force’s Appin location and undertook some adrenaline-filled activities. The requirement of team work, communication and strategy makes paintball an ideal activity for these elite athletes.
Delta Force Appin has an amazing array of scenarios and game zones making it an ideal location for the national side’s training camp. Crowd favourites include the custom-designed and manufactured Black Hawk chopper; 30 ft. Egyptian pyramid with guarding sphinxes; London double-decker bus amongst many more. The Delta Force team used these epic game zones along with creative scenarios to take the players on a physical, thought-provoking and competitive series on challenges.
At the conclusion of the session the team presented Delta Force with a signed jersey as a sign of their appreciation.

A place, object or embankment on the field that players use for cover. Examples include artificial gravestones, steel barrels or even London buses!
