The American cemetery on Omaha beach, contains the graves of 9,400+ American servicemen, the average age was 23 yrs. of age. Every so often, you'll come across one that simply says, "Here lies an American serviceman, known but to God".

Il y a beaucoup de choses a voir en Normandie sur le débarquement, je conseille a tout les passionnés de la 2nd guerre mondiale, beaucoup de musée et de cimetière ou autre... Le meilleur moment pour y aller c'est le 6 juin, c'est le jours où tout les passionnés de guerre se rassemble! J'y suis déjà aller 2 fois hors saison et 2 fois pendant les grandes vacances et c'est très bien, beaucoup de choses a voir
Yes, Germans killed a lot of USA soldiers like sitting ducks. But then they roast them like barbecue inside those bunker with the flamethrowers. One vet described the burned human flesh stench all over the area.
I see a lot of comments on how the streets seem so narrow and why ? ... I have to say keep in mind that Bayeaux, as a lot of other french and european cities has around 2000 years history, and that if not necesary the inhabitants never redesigned the entire city center layout. Buildings were only occasionally rebuilt, enlarged, etc. That is not the case for a lot of cities in Normandy that were totally wiped out by WW2 destructions and rebuilt in the 1950's (like Caen), but luckily for Bayeux it was taken very soon (June 7th) by the British forces with some infrantry fights but no major air or artillery bombings. Most of french city centers are from the Middle Ages if not Antiquity, and by that time those streets fit perfectly for horses of chariots :) Driving in these streets : you get used to it.
Had a flight out of Paris in the early afternoon and had to see as much as I could before making the drive back later in the morning. Is that ok with you?
My Great Uncle Julian Strand Died during the Normandy Landings on D-Day of German - occupied France in Europe along with my Grandpa which was my Dads Dad that was in Patton’s Third Army, he fought all the way though the Battle of the Bulge but he got to come back home...
He must have kissed the ground when he got back, way too many, never got the chance. The 3rd Army suffered 139,000+ casualties, during WW2!, 16,596 were killed!
