Instead, I found a sea full of concrete, a forgotten harbour, and a much larger story of D-Day. In this video, I explore why the British took Gold and Sword, how Mulberry B and Port Winston kept the invasion supplied, and what happened when a storm destroyed the American harbour at Omaha. I also follow the remarkable stories of Bill Millin, James Stagg, and the soldiers who captured Pegasus Bridge before dawn. Along the way, I visit the British Normandy Memorial and uncover the names, machines, decisions, and ordinary people that reveal why Omaha was never the whole story of D-Day.
