Manage episode 422288239 series 2992326
In this episode we pay tribute to the men who saved the world on Jun 06, 1944. D-Day was the name given to the June 6, 1944, invasion of the beaches at Normandy in northern France by troops from the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and other countries during World War II. France at the time was occupied by the armies of Nazi Germany, and the amphibious assault—codenamed Operation Overlord—landed some 156,000 Allied soldiers on the beaches of Normandy by the end of the day.*
In this episode we feature some stories from those who fought the war. The stories are found at D-Day, Eyewitness accounts of WW2. Read by Myron Hieronymous Thomas.
