INNSWORTH, -- Army Col. Anthony Healey, Chief of Information Operations at Headquarters, Allied Rapid Reaction Corps, Imjin Barracks, , briefs gathered officers and non-commissioned officers in front of a memorial to the 1st Infantry Division above Omaha Beach in Colleville-sur-Mer, April 19. The briefing was part of a week-long staff ride to Normandy, utilizing a Army Europe program and focusing on Operation Overlord from a corps-level perspective and how NATO might execute a similar operation today. “It’s a great program that USAREUR has available for Army units stationed in Europe,” said Army Lt. Col. Adam Hallmark, the staff ride’s lead planner, of the USAREUR staff ride program. “Units can either select from a list of packaged European staff rides provided and overseen by a civilian contractor or they can create and tailor their own so long as it comes in under a certain budget cap; we went the latter.”
