D-Day Tour Photos

Okay, so I added a bunch of photos.  They are not in tour order.  Hard to choose just a few:

 

The Church at Saint Mere Eglise, with the replica

of the paratrooper Steele stuck on the steeple.

The window in the church,

with paratroopers serving

as angels from heaven.

(Click on the photo to enlarge,

they are easier to see)

German bullet marks in a fence.  We know they

were German because the trajectory was at the sky.

Outside the church.

Utah Beach memorial

Utah Beach at nearly high tide.

The church at Angoville an Plain

Sorry, the stained glass windows

of WWII have to be included.

Damage from an unexploded

German mortar in the church 

German gun emplacement at Omaha Beach,

as Francis awaits our arrival.

Flamethrower damage at Pointe du Hoc

Carol and Glen at Pointe du Hoc

Nancy and Ron at Pointe du Hoc

(this was Francis' good idea) 

The tide going out at Omaha Beach

Francis leads the way.

The American cemetary
