- More about Battle of Cotentin: 9 - 19 June 1944
In June 1944, the Americans left the Sainte-Mère-Eglise and Utah Beach bridgehead and crossed the Merderet river to the Chaussée de la Fiere, taking Picauville on 10 June. Their advance was slowed by the failure of the 90th Infantry Division, but they were able to take Pont-l'Abbe on 12 June and Saint-Sauveur-le-Vicomte on 16 June. Two days later, they cut the Cotentin peninsula at Barneville, before heading north towards Cherbourg.
