Big Red One Assault Museum
Normandy, traces of D-day (1/16) 6th June 1944: Omaha Beach was one of the two American landing areas in Normandy, roughly 7 km long, between the villages Vierville-sur-Mer and Ste-Honorine-des-Pertes. The 16th Regiment of the 1st US Infantry Division (the ‘Big Red One’) and the 116th Regiment of the 29th US Infantry Division were designated to attack this beach, divided into four major landing areas. The photo was taken at the location of WN60 (Widerstandsnest 60), the easternmost of the 14 German strongpoints that guarded Omaha Beach in June 1944. Here you have a great view over the whole of Omaha. #Omaha_Beach #D_day_Normandy #BeachTips!
