Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Happy D-Day

On this day in 1944, over 150,000 men from the United States, Great Britain, and Canada stepped onto the beaches of Normandy and began to push back the Nazi armies. By the end of the day, 10,000 of these brave souls would be missing, wounded, or dead, but the Allied Forces had established their foothold on the Shores of France, and would not be dislodged.
Canada contributed 14,000 soldiers to Juno Beach, landing under heavy German Artillery and Machine Gun fire. Between 7:45 a.m. and 10:30 a.m., we established our beachhead and begin moving inland. By the end of the day, our boys had reached their D-Day objective, the Caen-Bayeux Highway intersection, 16.5km inland. Unfortunately, to preserve the battle line, our forces pulled back, but this achievement was the closest any of the D-Day invasion forces came to their objectives.
This is a WW2 thread, for you're grandpa's WW2 stories and/or WW2 memorabilia.

Anyway both of my grandfathers were in East Asia.
I have been to the beaches, but it was when I was young. We visited during Easter when it was very foggy, making things gloomy and mysterious. And we crawled in the tunnels the men were holed up in. That made quite an impression.
WATCH THAT FIRE FROM THE PILL BOX!
WHERE THE FUCK ARE MY TANKS!

He talked to me about D-Day a few times and he said when you heard the incoming rounds from the US Ships, you would piss yourself. The high-whistling sound and then the impact a mile or so inland as they were guaging the distance and improving their aim. He was in a bunker, running ammo up to the mgs so he never saw the guys actually coming off the boats, but just could hear the incoming artillery and all the other guys in his unit just getting on with business.
Which one

all of them
Allied Assault, the Omaha mission.
