D-Day 75th anniversary

The Normandy landings – now known as D-Day – were the largest seaborne invasion in history. They saw the Allied invasion of Normandy, France, beginning on June 6, 1944, and began the liberation of Nazi-occupied France, laying the foundation of Allied victory on the Western Front and the defeat of Hitler. Now, the anniversary of the operation, often referred to as D-Day, pays tribute to all those who fought and the sacrifices of the armed forces.
