Title: After Utah beach and Pointe du Hoc, we continued on to Omaha..

Message: After Utah beach and Pointe du Hoc, we continued on to Omaha Beach. Omaha Beach is a ten-kilometer stretch of beach in Normandy where American troops landed on June 6, 1944 as part of Operation Overlord. Omaha Beach is one of those sad and bloody landing sites where the Allied troops suffered their greatest losses.
Here is the "World War II Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial " located today.
On a cliff overlooking the beach, around 10,000 white crosses, some with a Star of David, are lined up in white stone, all pointing precisely towards America.
Numerous American soldiers who gave their lives in the Second World War, during the first stage of the Norman battles on June 6, 1944, found their final resting place here on 70 hectares of land.
The names of 1557 missing Americans are engraved on the walls of the semi-circular garden on the east side of the memorial.
In the memorial center there is an impressive exhibition with exhibits commemorating the landing.

„Omaha Beach was a nightmare…. Every man who set foot on Omaha Beach that day was a hero!“ (Lieutnant Gerneral Omar Bradley). No more words needed. THANKS! 🩷
