From amphibious Sherman tanks and mine-clearing flails to flame-throwing Churchills and prefabricated Mulberry Harbors, these strange mechanical beasts bypassed Rommel's deadly traps. While rejected by American commanders at a high cost on Omaha Beach, these ingenious machines proved vital to securing Normandy and altering the course of WW2.
