Colleville-sur-mer

The largest American cemetery, at Colleville-sur-mer near Pointe du Hoc, may already be familiar to you from the opening sequences of Saving Private Ryan. Neat rows of crosses cover the tranquil clifftop lawns, with no individual epitaphs, just gold lettering for a few exceptional warriors. At one end, a muscular giant dominates a huge array of battlefield plans and diagrams, covered with surging arrows and pincer movements. George W. Bush is the latest of many US presidents to have paid his respects.
