When will the "Omaha beach" meme actually die?
They landed out of effective range of enemy MG nests and had complete air and naval superiority.
Wow such a great heroic struggle to dispatch the 18 year old Czech conscripts manning the MG34s that can't hit you.

Movies depicted the beach as a really short stretch, but the MGs could still hit you good.

Omaha beach was actually a big fuck up, all the tanks failed to land and the naval bombardment missed the targets which lead to the Infantry walking into a meat grinder.

Bullshit, they landed at low tide and had to run for cover before the defenders could adjust their sights. And the naval bombardment didn't do shit.
Summer gets earlier and earlier every year on here.

wtf do you mean "before the defenders could adjust their sights"
you think they were sitting up there for days prior and hadn't set their zero?
I'd fucking love to be an MG gunner at Omaha just unleashing glorious 8mm mauser at 1000rpm into the flesh of disgusting Amerifats. Watching as all their high pitched stupid nasal accents drown out as their lungs get fucking ventilated by pure German steel.

what? you think they didn't have time to line up their guns with the boats during the approach? you think they were just sitting there and went "oh shit the americans are here" and scrambled to get a sight picture?
