Comment

Omaha Beach is the name used by the Allies during World War II to designate one of the five beaches of the Normandy invasion. Assigned to American troops, it was the beach where the Allies lost the most troops, earning it the nickname "Bloody Omaha". https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omaha_Beach?msclkid=9494b856a61c11ec99fb012a41efa41f
