Omaha Beach and German Bunker

A view of Omaha Beach from in front of a German bunker. I am pretty sure it is part of WN 62 (Widerstandsnester). It is just down from the Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial.

Man, why did you cut it off so soon and suddenly????

@Thekitty0706fan

I think those things rusted away or not there because of the heavy curret in that area. Thats why no one found the Shermans which sunk their were dropped too early.

@JazzJaRa im thinking more rests of guns helmets and other stuff not realy boats

@Thekitty0706fan

Maybe you will find a Mine ^^ But i think you won't find anything there. How do you want to keep a Tank or how do you want to lift a Boat (even if there are none anymore)

[Thekitty0706fan]

iv been thinking

since there were so many soldiers who died and tanks and boats that sank at omaha beach isent it possible to still find stuff? i would love to find one and keep but i hate grave plunder so i would give it to who ever you now give it to

@THEMATTBUXTON The SPR was good except for a few aspects, the most important was you couldn't walk from one end of the beach to the other without stepping on body parts. SPR showed only 10% of the real number of casualites. In The Longest Day you did get to see Gen Cota organize and eventually lead the breakout. I don't think Gen. Roosevelt got the credit in films that he deserved for his role at Utah.

I'm just back from touring the area exstensively and I saw very little graffiti- the French teach their children aboiut the history of the invaision and they are invoolved in respecting and maintaining the sights.
