79th Anniversary of D-Day Special

79 years ago today, over 350,000 soldiers and sailors began as Allied Supreme Commander, General Dwight D. Eisenhower said, the great crusade. Across 5 beach heads and dozens of drop zones across France, the Allies began their liberation of Western Europe. Spearheaded by the best available leaders, we will discuss the reason behind the landings and ultimate the fate of the men who landed feet first into hell. Even though it is only one day in time, this single day would be the beginning of the end for Adolf Hitler and his tyrannical rule over those in occupied countries, in a desperate effort to free them from their deathly grip. This is a short and breif overview of the events that took place that day in a special to commemorate those men.

For those interested, I highly suggest reading "The First Wave" by Alex Kershaw to further expand on the planning and the overall action during the landings.
