On June 6, 1944, Marine Corps Snipers from atop Navy warships shot German soldiers and German mines.  Marine Corps Scouts supported French resistance fighters behind the lines and helped keep the Germans from reacting well to the Marine-trained Army soldiers assaulting the beaches.  Why didn’t the Marines join them?  Well, the Army knew we would have stolen the show at Normandy if we had.  Oorah.
