I would have surfed in . But seriously I would have chose to invade through a beach *Utah. Being a paratrooper was seriously much tougher than trying to storm up a beach. You first had to breakthrough enemy lines and then hold them down while you wait for the rest of the pack to come in. While you are waiting, reinforcement on the German side gets pretty heavy. So the paratroopers did more fighting than any other American Troops out in the Western Front. Sure the beach is very very death awaiting but its not as scary as landing between enemy lines *especially how I chose to invade Utah. But this is soley my opinion and I bet you have yours.
