I would be grateful if someone could recommend a guided tour of the Normandy D-Day beaches. I plan to go there in early May. I am primarily interested in Omaha Beach - my father was with the 29th Division. I want to focus on the battleground, not so much any museums. Could someone recommend a good tour-provider? Please contact me at JDBano2001 at yahoo.com.
Now to make the Gettysburg connection. A few years ago, a man hired me to give him and his father a tour of Gettysburg. It was a birthday gift for his father, who was a WW 2 veteran, and who had been part of the Normandy invasion. The father was well up there in years, and I am not sure how much of the tour he followed. But he really perked up when we drove through the valley between Little Round Top and the Devil's Den. He looked tup oward Little Round Top, and his voice trembled as he said "It looks just like Omaha Beach".
