Abandoned tanks on a Normandy beach ?

hi guys

 

About 2 years ago, I read something about a beach somewhere in northern France, with a couple of abandoned tanks and trucks from D-Day. I remember some pictures of about 10 or 15 vehicles right in the middle of the sandy dunes, with the typical dune grass plants growing around them.

 

I think this place was located somewhere between the D-Day landing sites and the Mont St.Michel, but I am not sure. I just tried to google for this place, but can´t find any info.

 

Does anyone know this place or a town nearby?

I want to find on Google Earth, to get the coordinates.

 

Thanks!!!!

The sand dunes of Biville are a former firing range of the French army. Those tanks and vehicules were used as targets.
