Northern Utah Beach and German W10 Gun Battery

Arriving at Utah Beach for the first time ever, we toured the northern sector called Tare Green at exit 4. The W10 German gun fortification is still very intact.

Thank you all! When I visited Europe, traveling by RV, I had the ability to modify my schedule easily. I ended up in Normandy for many days more than I first intended. It was worth it and I can't wait to get back!

@ww2pat

Sorry to correct you a little bit, but this is NOT the place we call Utah-Beach. It's the landing place of

the 2. armoured Division of the french General Leclerc. Utah is a view miles south, near La Madelaine

..... landing in Normandy on 1 August 1944, his 2nd Armored Division participated in the battle of the Falaise Pocket (12 to 21 August), and went on to liberate Paris (Wiki)
