Normandy, traces of D-day Today, the Pointe du Hoc looks like the lunar surface. Craters left by aerial bombing and naval artillery shells still litter the ground as evidence of the fierce battle that took place here. #D_day_Normandy

Normandy, traces of D-day Six kilometres west of Omaha, the “Pointe du Hoc” towers thirty metres above a narrow pebble beach. The Pointe du Hoc was crowned by a German battery (still under construction in June 1944). On D-Day, the 2nd Ranger Battalion, made up of 225 soldiers, along with the 5th Ranger Battalion in support, scaled these cliffs and neutralized the enemy positions. #D_day_Normandy #BeachTips! #History
