Hello guys, I am begining to look at Omaha beach, Pointe du Hoc area and there seems to be a large amount of maps of Omaha beach, but a small amount on Pointe du Hoc. Does anyone have any maps showing the defences of Pointe du Hoc or just a Pointe du Hoc map in general that tells me alot of the battle? At the bottom of post I will upload a map I have found but to me is pretty basic. Also can I ask is there any veterans of Pointe du Hoc or Omaha beach who were part of the 2nd or 5th Rangers on this forum?
