Seventy years ago, roughly 45,000 American and allied infantry stormed the sands at Omaha Beach, Normandy, France. It was part of the largest coordinated maritime invasion in history, and involved a pair of US battleships, three cruisers, a dozen destroyers, and more than a hundred other warships. Three thousand US and allied soldiers died.Today, Omaha is eerily quiet. It's gently lapping waves and sweeping bluffs has made the site of D-Day's bloodiest, most iconic battle into a drone hobbyist's playground. And that's cool. What isn't cool is how most of the returns you'll get after searching "Omaha Beach, Normandy, drone fpv" on YouTube are cut to god awful, cringey dubstep. If you're responsible for choosing that sort of score to color hallowed ground, seriously, what are you thinking?
