Utah Beach

Utah beach is the furtherest landing beach on the right flank of the invasion force.  The purpose of the allied force was to go inland and relieve the airborne forces dropped early on June 6.  The landing was achieved with surprising ease suffering 200 casualties in the assault.

The direction is quite simple by taking Route 13 toward Cherbourg exiting at St. Mere Eglise and follow the signs to the beach.  I am attaching two pictures for your consideration.
