Description
In April 1943 the 2nd, 3rd and 4th Ranger Battalions were activated. And the sixth, in the Philippines. Volunteers from all units of the U.S. Army came together that spring, attracted by the publicity that Lt. Col. Darby’s Rangers had capitalized on in North Africa.
The new Rangers would storm Normandy at Pointe du Hoc and Bloody Omaha, conquer Brest, take Hill 400 in the HŸrtgen Forest, and stage the largest rescue of World War II at Cabanatuan.
Sign up as a volunteer, but be warned: 60% casualties are expected on each mission. At the very least.
In this second issue (actually the sixth) you will find the Rangers’ great journey to Europe and the two main scenarios they encountered for the assault on Fortress Europe: the bloody beach of Omaha and the impossible cliffs of Pointe du Hoc.
