Il y avait deux types de bateaux qui ont contribué au succès de OVERLORD, les bateaux Higgins et les LST([Landing Ship Tanks]. Tous les deux étaient utilisés pour transporter les soldats et les chargements. Le bateau Higgins était plus petit et pouvait aller tout près de la plage. Au début, il transportait uniquement les soldats, mais après le Jour-J, il était utilisé comme le LST pour transporter du matériel. Les LST étaient très grands et pouvaient amener les chars de combat, éléments. Il était trop grand pour l'opération du Jour-J mais, quand même, il était très utile après que les Alliés avait gagné les têtes de pont. 1, record 1, French, - bateau%20Higgins
