 On the 116th RCT front , the remainder of the 1st Battalion , B / 116 , C / 116 and D / 116 , were due to land in support of A / 116 at Dog Green . Three boats , including their headquarters and beach @-@ master groups , landed too far west , under the cliffs . Their exact casualties in getting across the beach are unknown , but the one @-@ third to one @-@ half that made it to shore spent the rest of the day pinned down by snipers . Not all sections of the badly scattered B / 116 landed there , but those that did were quickly forced to join those survivors of A / 116 fighting for survival at the water 's edge . Two companies of 2nd Rangers , coming in later on the edge of Dog Green , did manage to reach the seawall , but at the cost of half their strength .
