Relive the Pont-du-Hoc invasion with the 2nd Rangers Company D! The date is June 6, 1944. The place...somewhere aboard a warship in the English Channel. You have been training for weeks, and now it's time to see all that training and hard work pay off. What is the objective of the operation? What equipment will you need to complete your mission? Where is the enemy? Come join the 2nd Rangers as they prepare for their daring mission -- storming to the beach and scaling the cliffs to take control of the guns on Pont-du-Hoc. Find out what this crew had to do to be the first group to complete their mission during the Invasion of Normandy.

Please note: Historic reenactments are scheduled irregularly and on Saturday evenings only. All performances are subject to change or cancellation without notice.

THE SON ALSO RISES: If any man epitomizes patriotism, it is Senator John McCain. A distinguished veteran, statesman, and family man, this retired naval aviator has dedicated his life to national service, as his father and grandfather, both four-star admirals, did before him.
