Yes there were some mistakes made.In at least 2 cases Allied troops were bombed by Allied aircraft unloading too soon. -When you think of the greater picture, over 14,000 Allied air sorties on that one day, the mistakes were remarkably few.

What two things went wrong at Omaha beach on D-Day?

By chance, some German units were conducting operations there, when the landings occurred. Having a low profile, were the standards of the day, for the D-Day landings; had the beaches received the normal "Shore Bombardments" from the naval big guns, there would have been little to no German resistance on the shoreline.

Why do you need to study about past presidents?

To forget your history is to be doomed to repeat it. We study history to learn about the few things than our ancestors did right in the world, and the MANY things that they did wrong, in the hope that we will learn from their mistakes. You see, we human beings can ONLY learn from mistakes. But learning from OUR OWN mistakes is painful and dangerous. So we try to learn from the mistakes that other people have made. And past presidents have done a few things right, and gotten a LOT of things wrong. We should learn from THOSE mistakes, so that we can go forward from there and make new and innovative mistakes of our OWN.

How many graves at Normandy Beach?
