On their western flank, the Allied landings on D-Day combined a parachute drop by the 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions with an amphibious assault on "Utah" Beach by the US 4th Infantry Division.

Now the battle to break out and seize the key port of Cherbourg could begin.… (more)

Le operazioni degli alleati nel D-Day prevedevano una combinazione tra il lancio di paracadutisti dell' 82° e della 101° Divisione aviotrasportata e l'assalto anfibio a Utah Beach della 4° Divisione fanteria. Gli sbarchi, pur non avvenendo nel punto di costa stabilito, incontrarono una debole resistenza da parte dei tedeschi. ( )
