[DAS REICH] Blitz 08-10-2003 09:02 PM

meaning did i only go to omaha?no i went to Juno, Sword, Gold, Utah and omaha in addition to other places.............if you meant when, yes a couple days ago

OMG Blitz I went to Normandy like 6 weeks ago and took a picture of the exact same grave as you did. Teddy Roosevelt Jr stands out eh?

Oh BTW ppl, there's not much to see of the beach itself. Hard to imagine the chaos of 6th of June when there are people sunbaking, swimming and generally having a good time. So don't get your hopes up about pics from the beach itself.

Hmmm, I was always under the impression that they'd closed off that area of the coast. ....Or at least, it was just too shitty for those kinds of leisure activities.

I personally believe they should close off at least a sector of Omaha as a lot of people died on that beach.

US War Graves over look Omaha beach and there were heaps of people down there, just lazing about. Really there is not much to see, the more significant stuff is mainly at Point du Hoc. There's heaps of bomb craters and destroyed bunkers there.

I'm trying to upload some of my pics to DoD Studios but I just get wrong file type. I'm trying to upload jpg's but the system still shits itself mad:

wow, that day it was just as foggy as in MOHAA.

or is it always that foggy in the channel?

[DAS REICH] Blitz 08-11-2003 11:37 AM

It always a bit foggy but that day it was unusually foggy......like 10 minutes before the pic was taken you could barely see that bridge thingy...

Blitz-krieg 08-11-2003 11:49 AM

Looking at the omaha beach pics, the fog almost seems like it has a memory there on it's own and it will never leave

So were the French nice....?
