Objectif Omaha Beach

On the evening of 6 June, Omaha Beach and Pointe du Hoc were finally taken, at a heavy cost: more than 1,000 American soldiers paid with their lives to turn the tide of the Second World War. Through more than 150 photos, objects and documents from the period, this book recounts the fate of these men, their courage, and the decisive importance of their mission for the success of the D-Day landings and the liberation of Europe.
