Many are surprised to learn that the fierce battle in the skies over the
Normandy beaches was much like the Battle of Britain -- both in duration,

Not just surprised...SHOCKED ! I was over Normandy and there wasn't a German
plane in sight over Omaha Beach from dawn to dusk. We flew two missions that
day and never saw the Luftwaffe anywhere..
