Beny-sur-Mer Canadian War Cemetery

Located between Beny and Reviers, inland from Juno Beach on top of the little hill that overlooks the coast, this cemetery is beautifully maintained by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission. It is the final resting place of 2.043 Canadians (as well as one French and four British soldiers) including the 359 Canadians killed on D-day.The entrance is decorated with four maples and the Stone of Remembrance. At the center of the graveyard is the Cross of Sacrifice, surrounded by the limestone headstones (all of which have recently been replaced).

Bernieres-sur-Mer

On this eastern side of Juno Beach, two other infantry regiments attacked : the Queen’s Own Rifles and the North Shore. At Bernières, where La Chaudière Regiment later landed, is located the main monument close to the famous "Canadian House" that is in so many D-Day pictures, and which still permanently flies a Canadian flag.The German resistance in this area and then the counter-attack from the south caused the slow progression inland toward Caen and stopped the troops from reaching the Carpiquet airfield.
