D-Day Beaches


The following photos are from my recent trip to Normandie France, the D-Day beaches. 
We flew but weren't able to get any air photos as the weather wasn't very nice.

In July of 1999 I finally got to fly over the D-day beaches on our way to the British Channel Island of Jersey.

This is the Mulberry, Pegasus Bridge, Point Du Hoc and the American Cemetary from the air.  The Mulberry is very impressive from the air.   The last photo is a fortification from the Occupied Channel Island of Jersey.
