It is fascinating-I recognise a few of those locations from my trip there a few years ago. Actually I got quite engrossed in some of the other stuff on that site. Thanks for posting it.

Another "now' photo from our visit there a few years back. It is quite a moving experience visiting many of the remaining sites along the beach.

Great images, many thanks for the link.

In some cases there has been some remarkable restoration/reconstruction work.

Fantastic, many thanks. It's interesting to see how little some of the places have changed. Did anyone notice the pic with what looks like a P-47 ditched on the beach just a few feet from the sea wall ? Amazing.
