Omaha was the largest of the invasion beaches and heavily defended by
experienced Germany infantry well entrenched in a large complex of bunkers,
trenches and machine-gun posts. Air and naval bombardment had little
impact on the German troops, who laid down well-coordinated and accurate fire
as soon as the US landing craft came within range.
Scores of tank and infantry landing craft were sunk or damaged and 27 DD tanks
foundered as they struggled through the four-foot seas. The few tanks that
were landing directly on the sand were quickly hit and destroyed.

漏了一段重要的解說
http://www.sproe.com/t/tank-dd.html
The DD tank was used by ten tank battalions of British, Canadian and
American forces during the Normandy landings on June 6th, 1944. Although
the design was generally considered to be a success, many of the tanks that
were assigned to Omaha Beach that launched from out at sea (6,000 yards out)
foundered and sank in the choppy channel waters.
Discovery 諾曼地登陸戰特別專輯中也提到了美軍DD戰車在奧馬哈灘頭的悲慘命運
搭載DD戰車的LSM過早放下DD泛水...導致人車俱沉...뜊 DD戰車雖然在當時是一項成功的設計,但是隨著二次世界大戰後的主力戰車噸位뜊 愈來愈重,類似計劃在1950年代就被廢止了.
