The Germans occupied it and the Allies attacked it.
I have no idea, why are you asking me?
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 allies Landed at Normandy Beach. the separated the long beach into 5 separate beaches codenamed Omaha, Utah, Gold, Juno and Sword.
Not only in Omaha beach, but in all the coast of the Normandy beaches in Northern France. There were five beaches: Omaha, Utah, Gold, Juno, and Sword. The Allies, which were the US Army, the British army, and the Canadian army, invaded these five beaches to take over the Nazi forces in France, and fortunately succeeded in the invasion. Although the toughest invasion for the Allies was in Omaha beach, because there were more deaths of the Allies than in the other beaches.
During the landings at Normandy, Omaha beach took just more than 24 hours to fall into the hands of the allies. There were many casualties, but the Nazi defenses started to retreat.
WW2, D-day, June 6th 1944......Omaha was one of 5 beaches the allies assaulted at Normandy, France. Beside Omaha beach there was Utah, gold, juno and sword. The last three beaches were assualted by British and Canadian forces...............
No, not quite. It was just an appropriate coded name used by the Allies during the Normandy Invasion Plan.
The Allies landed on five beaches in the French province of Normandy on D-Day. The Americans landed on the two largest: Omaha and Utah Beach. Utah Beach was a typical beach invasion that went well, with moderate (within expectation) casualties. Omaha Beach was a slaughterhouse, but with tenacity, it was held. Sword, Gold and Juno beaches were taken by the British and Canadians with only moderate resistance.
the beach was very hard to take because the barriers were not cleared and there was not any of the tanks there. The German army also had the beach covered with heavy machine guns.
Utah, Omaha, Sword, Juno and Gold...................... on 6 June 1944, Normandy, France
I think they attacked Omaha Beach because the Allies think that's the only way they could push through Europe and into German soil to end the war machine, the Axis. ^^^^^^^^^ HE IS WRONG There wer actually 5 beaches: Ohmaha, Utah, Sword, Juno, & Gold. These were all attacked in The Allies desperate hope to turn the war around, which was actually an unexpected victory for The Allies.
