In the video for "The Ghost Of You", while the soldiers are in the Higgins boats, we see a soldier with the 2nd Ranger Battalion patch on his shoulder. When the soldiers get onto the beach, they wear the insignia of the 1st Infantry Division. During the Normandy invasion, these two units were not together at Omaha Beach.
