Sully is right. In the movie Saving Private Ryan, you can get an idea what the boys from Bedford faced as they were in the first wave as Company A. I was told that a large portion of Co. A was the Bedford Boys.
The monument is awesome in Bedford. ONe of the visitors left his leutenants bars and a puple heart on a statue. The effects they have of the water jets simulating bullets hitting the water is impressive. I met some of the docents who are veterans. One of the guys that is there a lot is the last surviving member of the Omaha beach group, he lost an arm there.
The pic here shows the German Bunker recreation and the flags on top, etc.
