Omaha Beach or Midway


I think flying off an aircraft carrier would have been the coolest places to be in WWII. But I'm an infantry grunt at heart, so storming Omaha Beach would be my choice.

Grandfather went ashore at Normandy in July 1944, fought in an armor division through the end of the war in France, Belgium, and Germany.
