Just a comment about the Rangers :
LTC Rudder didn't storm ashore at Omaha beach but west of Omaha Beach at the Pointe-du-Hoc with the D,E and F companies of the 2nd Ranger Bn.
Only the C CO. of 2nd Ranger Bn. under Command of Cpt Gorranson was planned to land at Omaha beach (Charlie Sector). Because of a late assault of the Pointe-du-Hoc, the 2nd wave ( 5th Ranger Bn. + A, B COs of the 2nd Ranger Bn. ) were directed to Omaha beach.

Pointe-du-Hoc
