Thanks for the links. I really need to do more research...
One of these is an advertisement for tours, but it gives a very nice summary of what the purpose was for each of the 5 beaches and some info about the troops that were assigned and how well they achieved their objectives.
I have to be honest, I am kinda nuts when it comes to WWII. I always watch all the documentaries and stuff.
All my life, I’ve been trying to figure out how in the heck a loser like Hitler was able to rise to power so fast. I really couldn’t understand it till 2008. Now I can understand how some people can be duped with the right propoganda machine.
