Visit Braunton Burrows D-Day Training Landing Craft, Braunton, England
Braunton Burrows is an extensive sand dune system on the North Devon coast. During WW2 it was used as the US assault training centre from 1943 up until the Invasion of Normandy. One of the key tasks for the D-Day landings in Normandy would be for efficient embarkation and debarkation of the landing craft. To assist in training for this concrete mock-ups of landing craft were constructed so exercises could take place on dry land without the need for ships or craft.
