Among the many Allied military units storming the Normandy coast on June 6, 1944, was the 16th Infantry Regiment of the U.S. Army’s 1st Infantry Division.

Key Points: 
  • Among the many Allied military units storming the Normandy coast on June 6, 1944, was the 16th Infantry Regiment of the U.S. Army’s 1st Infantry Division.
  • Omaha would become the most deadly of the five D-Day landing beaches, as the U.S., U.K. and allied nations attacked Nazi-occupied France in World War II.
  • As a military and oral historian, I researched this particular regiment’s service in Vietnam and became fascinated by its earlier history as well.
  • By D-Day, the regiment had already participated in the World War II invasions of North Africa and Italy in 1942 and 1943.

A dangerous attack

  • Rough seas – swells between 3 and 6 feet, and 25 mph winds – swamped most of the tanks.
  • Ted Lombarski, a sergeant in the 16th’s F Company, recalled: “We were the first wave to hit the beach, Companies E and F of the 16th Infantry.
  • The bullets and shrapnel made the ocean appear to be boiling, according to an oral history of the regiment.
  • … The enemy was riddling the beach with machine-gun fire.” And Lombarski recounted: “Being in that first wave was like committing suicide.
