From La Rochelle to Vierville sur Mer (town near where Omaha Beach is) in Normandy is about 455 kilometres. The Monuments to the fallen Soldiers is in the same area.

I’m assuming you mean La Rochelle in Normandy (there are several La Rochelle’s in France) to Omaha Beach. The actual war memorial is at Colleville-sur-Mer and overlooks Omaha Beach.
That’s a distance of about 140 kms by road, not sure if there’s a train.
Vierville-sur-Mer is about 129 kms from La Rochelle, and just up the coast from Omaha Beach.
