What would be a good way to see the above locations starting in the USA?

What would be a good way to visit Lourdes and the Normandy D day area on the same trip ?

What will be your primary destination, e.g. Paris? Or are Lourdes and the D-Day Beaches the only places you want to see?
Are you willing to rent a car and drive in France? And how much time will you have?

Your two destinations are VERY far apart. Lourdes is in the Pyrenees, about 500 miles south of paris. The D-day beaches are about 175 miles north-west of paris.
You can fly RT to Lourdes from Paris with Air France or you can take the TGV train, about a six hour trip, IIRC.
You really need a car to visit the landing beaches, or you could take one of the organized tours from either Paris or Bayeux. Although the tours from Paris will give you a brief overview of the sites in one (very long) day, I%26#39;d recommend that you take at least two and better yet three to really get the ful impact of the landings and to see some of the other places of interest in the vicinity.
