More about the book

Oral histories from veterans of three U.S. regiments illuminate their experiences during the Normandy invasion on June 6, 1944. The 507th Parachute Infantry Regiment, despite being scattered, played a crucial role in halting an SS division, yet remains largely overlooked. The 116th Infantry Regiment faced the highest casualties on Omaha Beach, transforming from a mocked unit to frontline heroes. Meanwhile, the 22nd Infantry Regiment, with a storied history, landed on Utah Beach and engaged in fierce battles to secure strategic positions.
