D-Day Normandy
“Utah Beach”
At 0630 on the morning of June 6, 1944, Brigadier
General Theodore Roosevelt, Jr. armed only with a .45 colt and
clutching a wooden cane, led the U.S. Army’s 4th
Infantry Division ashore in the first assault wave at Utah Beach
on the Normandy coast of France. Of the five assault beaches on
D-Day, the Utah beach landing was the most successful due to the
conduct of General Roosevelt. He was awarded the Medal of Honor
for his actions that day. Years after the war, General Omar
Bradley, then Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army, was asked by a
magazine syndicate for a statement on the bravest act he had
ever known in over forty years of military service. He
described General Roosevelt’s conduct on Utah Beach.
