Omaha Beach Cemetery


Omaha Beach Cemetery
We arrived late in the day, just in time to catch the lowering of the flag with taps which brought a tear to everyone's eyes. To see so many crosses.....like soldiers still marching....perfectly aligned.

I don't know if you can read this cross, but I was struck that he was a General. This picture shows only part of the cemetery and these were only the men whose families chose to have their bodies remain in Normandy.
