5 Beaches

Preamble:

Operation Overlord (also known as D-Day), which occurred on June 6, 1944.  Over 156,000 American, British and Canadian forces landed on five beaches along a 50-mile stretch with 5,000+ ships and landing craft carrying troops and supplies and 11,000+ aircraft providing air cover and support.  Over 4,000 allied forces lost their lives that day.  We made 5 stops during the beatdown, 1 for each of the 5 beaches… Utah, Omaha, Sword, Gold, Juno
