A must-see for history and military enthusiasts, especially boys. Small museums, but rich in displays. Looking at the exhibits, it is reminiscent of the Normandy landings in 1944.
The museum displays some military technology and is educational. Outside the museum is a collection of heavy weapons, including one of the most successful weapons in World War II, the famous "armor butcher knife" - the German 88 mm heavy anti-aircraft gun.
The cemetery to commemorate the US military was also set up on Ohama Beach, and the French government gave the cemetery to the United States, so we can say that we are also standing on American soil. We met two elderly people who were unable to walk and were wheelchair-driven by their families. What makes them so old to the US military memorial cemetery? I think it must have been a veteran of the Normandy landings. I tried to guess the mood of the two elderly people, 70 years ago here, they and comrades in the smoke in the blood fight, that was stained red by the blood of comrades in the Ohama beach, now blue sky, white clouds and green grass like a blanket, and the comrades who died in their own side, But forever buried under this land in a foreign country, they will soon follow them to heaven.
