説明

Recognize the scope and significance of D-Day by visiting sites that played pivotal roles in this massive invasion that was a turning point in World War II. At Arromanches, you will view remnants of an ingenious floating harbor that the Allies built to avoid using German-occupied ports. You will also watch an immersive film in a circular theater that further details the invasion. Nearby you will see a concrete battery and artillery guns that were part of the German coastal defensive system known as the Atlantic Wall. At the cemetery above Omaha Beach, you will pause to reflect at the final resting place of nearly 9,400 soldiers that died during the invasion. Walking among the sea of marble crosses and Stars of David will be deeply moving. Another stop will be made at Pointe du Hoc, where American soldiers used rope ladders to scale a 100-foot cliff and disarm the German artillery. A simple granite monument marks the spot.
