The only lame part to that is the scene where they blow up the roadblock and the entire Division runs through the hole. Omaha was taken by guys in one and twos working their way up ravines and draws and taking out pillboxes and MG nests. SPR was closer to how the guys got off Omaha Beach.

As I recall, there was a small streambed/ravine system that cut through to the beach that the troops were able to use to get up to the heights. I would sure rather go ashore on Utah.
