I love how there's a schematic representation of the landings that doesn't even remotely resemble the actual map.
Yeah they, uh, coulda narrowed that square highlight a bit, lol
Not enough representation of General Roosevelt making the landing in person with a heart condition to lead his troops from the front, all while rerouting his entire wing of the invasion because they got blown off course and he decided "fuck it, this beach is better anyways!"
I believe the exact quote was, "I guess we'll just have to start the war from here then!"
Every time I see this image I think of the office where Michael made a typo in Dwight's name.
Also:
preceded he invasion
There are also a few mistakes/typos in the cities' names.
