Allied Intelligence and the Cover Up at Pointe Du Hoc by Gary Sterne

Fills in the gaps that many have only guessed at concerning the Rangers' real missions on D-Day. This work will change the way that historians view the Pointe du Hoc battle from now on.
Military historian GARY STERNE is an author, keen collector of militaria, and was a co-founder of The Armourer and Skirmish Magazines. He has always been fascinated by WW2 battles and in particular was intrigued by the lack of precise information relating the mystery of the "missing guns" of Pointe du Hoc. His research led to the finding of a map which indicated the position of an "unknown" German gun position buried in the village of Maisy. After buying the land he was able to open the huge site to the public. The re-discovery of the Maisy Batteries made headline news around the world and has subsequently changed the history of the Omaha Sector forever. The site is now one of the major Normandy D-day attractions. www.maisybattery.com
