Another case where Uncle Sugar knew what was coming, and sat back let a devastating lose of life and equipment happen for profit among those with connections. My father dropped out of high school to join following his older brothers. One was in the second wave on D-Day and forever fucked up. And that effected his kids & grand kids.

Their was so many dead and human remains on the D Day beaches once the beachhead was secure they brought in bulldozers to bury them. Deep long trenches were dug well above the tide line. Men who just a few hours earlier were eating their last breakfast of steak and eggs were now 'ungracefully' being pushed in the ditch and covered with sand as the smell had become intolerable for those still alive.
Later to be dug up and best efforts were made to make a complete body so they could forever rest in nearby designated cemeteries. Scenes the public does not see in Hollweird movies.
