Après plusieurs kilomètres de marche dans les herbus par 38 degrés, je m'en souviendrai longtemps de cet instant où l'archange passe dans l'éclipse solaire ...

D-Day Experience and Dead Man's Corner museums are on the same site in Saint-Côme-du-Mont. Artefacts and personal belongings from American and German paratroopers are displayed in both museums. There's also a flight simulator and a 3D cinema screen. Two films are played - one giving an overview of D-Day and the other about the Battle of Carentan and why it was so important in the conflict. You can ask for headphones for the English version.
