Monument by Anilore Banon at Omaha Beach, Normandy, France.
This is a memorial to the American forces, consisting of three elements: The Wings of Hope, Rise Freedom, and the Wings of Fraternity.
This memorial stands on the beach known as Omaha Beach in the village St. Laurent-sur-Mer in Normandy, France and commemorates the soldiers that fell on the beaches of Normandy on D-Day, June6, 1944. The memorial was dedicated on June 5 2004, for the 60th anniversary of the invasion.
I have the pleasure to present you below the way I see this memorial.
