Hey guys!
Here is your WW2 fact of the day!
"Did you know that on D-day (Normandy landings) the German Luftwaffe (air force) was only able to fly one single sorty over Omaha Beach with 2 planes that failed to damage anything. Both pilots survived the war! Meanwhile the Allies flew a staggering 14,000.
Your picture of the day is above!
In this picture, American infantry prepare to land on Omaha Beach, on June 6th 1944 under heavy fire. Omaha beach would lead to 2000 American casualties and proved to be the costliest landing of them all that day.
Feel free to post your own facts and discuss them as you will!
