"At dawn of June 6 our LCVP approached to bristled-up with pillboxes and braided with trenches area Omaha at Easy Green sector."
i know what the LCVP is but then, i don't understand anything at all. i even think a word is missing ("braided with trenches area Omaha???").
could someone, please, rephrase that sentence in an easier to understand english?

Area Omaha is heavily fortified. Pillboxes are standing up like the bristles on an angry dog's back. Trenches twist and twine around the area.
"Braided...."
Military shorthand makes me crazy trying to guess the acronyms and strange language - however the "braiding" look comes from the tire
markings....they are sort of irregular V-shapes when spun in a row look like braids.
Hamster is going to have my head - I posted this before all by itself....
