I'm looking for a good book on the Omaha D-Day invasion with good pictures or maps of the German bunkers. Thank you |

Try the US Army Offical History. Lots of maps. I think it is on the US Army Center for Military History site (free) |

Yes I agree with Saber 6 – try the official US History – free with lots of maps and photos! Here is the link link |

I have a few books that work pretty well. Spearheading D-Day by Jonathan Gawne D-Day 1944 Omaha Beach Osprey The Story and Photographs D-Day Normandy by Donald Goldstein The Fight First The Untold Story of the big Red One on D-Day by Flint Whitlock |

Probably the best book I have seen is Omaha Beach by Georges Bernage. This is published by Heimdal in French and an English translation and includes architectural plans of all the German positions on Omaha. ISBN 2 84048 154 5 |
