At 0645 hours on June 6th Company C of 2nd Ranger Battalion landed on Omaha Beach. It's objective was to secure the
flank of the western beachhead at Pointe de la Percée. Losing half their men in the landing they went to Plan Two, instead of
dealing with the Guns to the right at Pointe de la Porcée. This meant they had to climb the Cliffs right in front of them. Doing so
they found a German Wiederstandsnest (Wn73), a strongpoint consisting of a maze of dugouts and trenches and started to attack them.
Soon Company B of 116th RCT landed on the beach and joined the attack. The Germans in the strongpoint defended themselves stubbornly and reinforcements were brought in. The fight for Wn 73 lasted until well into the afternoon before the Americans conquered the nest.

Assault On The Merville Battery
Date: 6 June 1944
On D-Day the British 6th Airborne Division had been given the task of securing the left flank of the Allied seaborn
landings. One of the objectives was the Merville Gun Battery who threatened Sword Beach. Colonel Terence Otway's 9th Parachute Battalion was given the task to neutralize the Battery. It consisted of four tunnel-connected casemates believed to hold 155 mm Howitzers along with personnel bunkers, machine gun nests and trenches. The Paratroopers was scattered, many too far away to make it in time for the assault so Otway could only muster 150 out of the 600 men jumping. The British Para's attacked and was inflicted heavy casualties by the defending Germans. Otway secured the compound and disabled the Guns. When reaching the Guns they discovered that they were old World War I guns, 100mm Howitzers manufactured in Czechoslovakia.
