Utah

Utah beach:

Troops going to Utah beach would have been under heavier fire from the Germans had the tides not moved them. Better still, Bombers and paratroopers took out defenses! 27 of 32 tanks Made it ashore, but at Omaha, 27 of 29 tanks sank. This is due to where the tanks were dropped off.  They had 197 casualties.

Ever wondered how to teach how to attack an Entrenched position? A good example happened  on D-Day!! Lt. Richard Winters of the 101st airborne took 10 men to attack 4 large guns and take out 50 enemies. He demolishes all 4 guns and kills or captures more than 1/2 of the Enemies. That attack is used at West Point for the purpose noted above.
