SynopsisFresh research has produced a detailed text and color photographs that cover every aspect of the organization, training and active operations of the special units of D-Day. The invasion of Normandy is undoubtedly one of the most written about military events of the 20th Century. However, many of the smaller units that played important roles have been forgotten or ignored. Many unconfirmed, or erroneous myths about the American landings have been repeated in popular books. Noted military historian, Jonathan Gawne examines the landings at Utah and Omaha with an eye to what other writers have ignored., The months leading up to June 6, 1944 were ones of intense preparation by the Allies. Even the most bizarre suggestions were seriously considered in the interest of insuring Allied victory.
