Hey Kai,

Thanks for the posting. I did a project for class last year and used that first picture of Pointe Du Hoc for my powerpoint presentation.

Unlike what "The Longest Day" said the guns were found. Now I read that they ran out of thermites and had to go back to get more to finish off the other guns. Did you come across that when you did your research?

Greg
