The Allied Landing at Arromanches

You arrive in Arromanches-les-Bains on June 7, 1944, not as a frontline hero, but as a junior British logistics officer with the 50th Infantry Division. Your orders are clear: coordinate the assembly and defense of the Mulberry B harbour—a feat of engineering audacity that will fuel the Allied advance across Europe. As dawn breaks, you survey the battered Phoenix caissons scattered along the beach, some askew after a night of storms and shellfire. Every decision you make—whether to risk men or machinery, to draft civilians or delay—ripples through the fragile operation. Along the sand, Sherman tanks rumble and engineers scramble, all under the constant threat of German snipers and the relentless tide. At each checkpoint, you unlock snippets from officer journals, radio logs, and survivor tales, piecing together a story of improvisation, sacrifice, and ingenuity. From the commemorative flags fluttering on Rue du Maréchal Joffre to the bronze orientation table mapping the harbour's skeleton, you become the nerve center of a logistical miracle. Will you prioritize the safety of your men, or the speed of the supply chain? Will you trust local families risking everything for the cause? This is not just a tour—it's a mission, where you live the dilemmas and triumphs that made Mulberry B the unsung hero of D-Day.
