there were five beaches: Utah,omaha,juno,gold and sword. All located at Normandy,France, from Ouistreham in the east to just east of Pointe du Hoc in the west.
Utah and Omaha beaches were assaulted by US Forces. Juno, Gold and Sword
beaches were assulted by the British and Canadians
Pointe Du Hoc is also included.
True, but Pointe Du Hoc was not classified as a landing beach. Pointe Du Hoc was a 100 foot cliff off the Omaha beach on which there was a German battery of 6 155mm howtizers. To attack the howtizers US rangers had to climb the 100 foot cliff. However, upon reaching the cliff summit it was found that the 6 howtizers had been moved to the rear. The rangers tracked the howtizers and destroyed them but the rangers suffered a high percentage of casualties. The rangers did not assault a beach at Pointe Du Hoc, they climb a cliff................................
