Omaha Beach is located on the northern coast of France in the province of Normandy. It was given the name Omaha by the Allies during World War II prior to their invasion.
The beaches were divided up into where the United States were attacking and where the British were going to attack. The United States beaches were Utah beach and Omaha beach. The British beaches were called Gold beach, Juno beach, and Sword beach. These are all code names for different parts of Normandy. Normandy is the whole beach and these other names are just parts to invade.
Well Normandy was the collective name of all the beaches that were invaded. By far the worst was Omaha Beach which was attacked by the Americans
the Normandy beaches assaulted by the allies on D day were: gold juno sword utah omaha
