Not to diminish contributor ID1255552835's Contributionsto this site, but as Albert Nimzicki (actor James Robert Rebhorn) said in Independence Day (ID4): 'Uh... Mr. President. That's not entirely accurate.'
The definition of a Casino is a building or large room used for meetings, entertainment, dancing, etc., especially such a place equipped with gambling devices, gambling tables, etc.
This would seem to be a fairly close description of the 'Riverboat on the Potomac' located at 301 Beach Terrace, Colonial Beach, VA 22443, (804) 224-7055 | URL: http://www.theriverboat.net
Tom and Penny Flanagan purchased the Old Reno and renamed it "Riverboat on the Potomac". It is the hub of activity in Colonial Beach with Maryland and Virginia lottery, Keno (a form of Maryland Lottery), of which Tom said, "Keno is more like Bingo". On February 9, 1994, they received their license for Off Track Betting, the horses and the business took off like a thoroughbred heading for the finish line!
With the Passing of Tom, Penny Flanagan became the only female OTB owner in the state of Maryland, has created the perfect summer getaway. Come by boat, golf cart, helicopter, motorcycle, or vehicle, multiple access is the key at this location! Situated on the Potomac River, the Riverboat has something for everyone with close proximity to Hotels, Bed and Breakfasts and shopping! Off-track betting parlor, Keno, Maryland and Virginia lottery and top it off with great food and fun atmosphere!
Sorry contributor ID1255552835... but that sounds like a Casino to me, yes? BTW... I've been here for 28 yrs.

What were the American and German strategies on Omaha Beach?
The Americans/British/Canadians strategy was to get on the beach and hold on, pushing inland as fast as possible.
The German strategy was to keep them off and drive them back off if they managed to get on.
A key component on both sides was to control roads and bridges off the beach. The Germans wanted to blow them up to keep the Allies bottled up. The Allies wanted them to move troops out of the beach area and increase the ground they had to work with. At the same time the Allies wanted to blow up some bridges and rail lines to prevent German reinforcements from aiding the defense. Paratroopers were dropped to control certain bridges and major intersections, either destroying them or protecting them, depending on their location.
Answer
The US strategy for Omaha beach was significantly different from that used on the British and Canadian beaches. The plan was for the beach exits to be captured by direct assault. The British (and Germans) has discovered this to be extremely costly in lives in WW `. To avoid this they used Armoured engineer tanks (bridges, gap filling, mine clearance and bunker busting) to create pathways away from the main German defences. The US army failed to do this and many of the losses on Omaha were caused by this.
German strategy was a mixed one, that involved an arguement between the German generals. One group who had experienced allied air power believed all movement would be prevented by air attacks and all the force should be concentrated on the beaches. Another group believed that an armoured reserve should be held back to attack the landings at the critical point.
