Battlefield Tour - Normandy (Utah Beach & American Airborne Ops)

We'd decided to spend a bit of coin and complete 3 days worth of a guided tour around the area.

We struck gold with the our guide - he was fantastic!

A sobering few days though.

The first day would be related to American Airborne op's on D Day and the landings at Utah Beach.

First stop - Saint Mere Eglise and the Airborne Museum









Then over to La Fiere bridge & Cauquigny




And then Utah beach...








Final stops - Brecourt Manor & Angoville au Plain. The story of medics Bob & Ken is amazing.
