This is the Army’s official history of the Omaha beach invasion effort and subsequent progress inland. The site is entirely text, written as adult-level military history. There’s plenty of material here - and in other corners of this vast site - for the patient reader.
In the Classroom
Use the maps and images offered at the bottom of the site to aid presentations and lectures about D-day. The images are in black and white, but are still useful for discussing troop movements and the geography of the land and the battle scenery.
