By Air and Sea - Exploring the D-Day Beaches

video thumbnail
In this Vlog we continue our time in Normandy as we explore the American D-Day landing sites of June 6th, 1944. We start at the American Cemetery overlooking Omaha Beach. This is the stunningly beautiful cemetery that featured in Saving Private Ryan. From there we visit the Overlord Museum where Ross isn't quite sure if he has seen a Tiger Tank. Then a stroll along Omaha beach which saw incredibly hard fighting on D-Day. We have lunch in the small town of St Mere Eglise, famous for the monument of John Steele from the 82nd Airborne who got snagged on the church tower. We visit Utah Beach, the 101st Easy Company memorial at Brecourt Manor and finish off our tour at the German War Cemetery.

-----IMPORTANT-----

We are not Historians. We are two ordinary chaps who are learning about WW2 history and documenting our journey. We are exploring this history from the sides of both the Allies and Axis. Those with sympathetic views towards the Nazi regime or hold any type of extreme views are not welcome here on WW2 Nation.
