INNSWORTH, U.K. -- Remnants of the artificial Mulberry Harbor “B” used by the Allies in the early months of World War II, can be seen on Gold Beach outside the D-Day Museum in Arromanches, France, April 17, where U.S. Officers and non-commissioned officers assigned to Headquarters, Allied Rapid Reaction Corps, Imjin Barracks, U.K. were taking part in week-long staff ride to Normandy. The staff ride, utilized a U.S. Army Europe program and focusing on Operation Overlord from a corps-level perspective and how NATO might execute a similar operation today.
“It’s a great program that USAREUR has available for Army units stationed in Europe,” said U.S. Army Lt. Col. Adam Hallmark, the staff ride’s lead planner, of the USAREUR staff ride program. “Units can either select from a list of packaged European staff rides provided and overseen by a civilian contractor or they can create and tailor their own so long as it comes in under a certain budget cap; we went the latter.”
