Why not just stand off at a safe distance and nuke the place to a cinder rather than reenacting the D-Day invasion? After all they weren't interested in conquering territory, just killing all the bugs, which could have been done a lot more efficiently than shooting them one by one with small arms.Oh, right...there'd be no movie if the soldiers didn't land.
Follow Ups:
If their primary goal and motive was to capture a Brain Bug, the only way to do that would be to send in the troops. But in Hollywood, why worry about things like that (if the audience wants to think, they should just go out and read the book....)
