I have always had this rether morbid obsession with war, after visiting these places and seeing what actually went on its got worse! we went to Omaha beach were the Americans landed what a lovely long beach with over a hundred meters of sand before the road way, nice if you've only got you're towle and sun screen not a 40kg pack ,a 8kg rifle that doesn't like sea water and some nutter on the other side with a rate of 1500p/m rate of fire...
 this the front of an american landing craft,not everyone got off..
 symbol of memorial and peace to the fallen.

me standing in one os the many bome craters,it must have been noisy to say the least.
over 4000 dead in one day and 1500 injured.But we are still speaking english so thanks guys.
