First stop this morning was Omaha Beach. Here's a picture looking at Omaha Beach below us and to the East. This is from gun position 73. The tide is almost all the way out; you can see the vast expanse of beach and the width of the beach from the water line to the wall our soldiers had to traverse under withering fire. Very sobering. We are in awe of the courage displayed that day!
