During Camp Liberty 2026, the 300th Engineer Combat Battalion demonstrated how to assemble a Bailey Bridge. Using individual bridge sections, steel structures and plenty of skill, the engineers worked step by step to build a bridge that could eventually be crossed by historic vehicles.
Bailey Bridges played an important role during the Second World War, restoring vital links when bridges had been destroyed or were no longer usable. Seeing soldiers from the US 300th Engineer Combat Battalion demonstrate this process at Camp Liberty made the story all the more special.

Many thanks to the 300th Engineer Combat Battalion and FPS Media for capturing this remarkable demonstration!
