Day 3.
Day 3 started with a visit to Sainte-Mere-Eglise.
Preparations for the invasion.
C-47 Dakota.
After Sainte-Mere-Eglise we drove to Brecourt and then on to UTAH-Beach were the 4th ID, under command of General Roosevelt, landed on June 6th 1944.
Signatures on the tables in the UTAH-beach bar, Le Roosevelt.
Finally I had the opportunity to visit the Marmion farm in Ravenoville. I had never been there before and it was high on my priority list.
And we also did some other sightseeing that day and we moved on to Cap de la Hague. A beautiful place.
End of day 3.
