D-DAY - 65 YEARS AGO -
JUNE 6, 1944
Do you know that...
"On June 6 1944 British, Canadian and American troops stormed the beaches of France to establish a grip on fortress Europe. The largest armada the world had ever seen began a bitter assault against a determined enemy. It was the first step to the liberation of Nazi occupied Europe and the 5th year of the war. A war which claimed millions of lives both civilian and military. The British alone suffered almost 400,000 deaths according to some estimates."
