Description In the early hours of Tuesday, 6th June 1944, three divisions of paratrooper and glider forces descended on Normandy.
Already assembling offshore was the largest seaborne invasion fleet in the history of the world, ready to unleash over 130,000 troops against Hitler's Atlantic Wall.
More than 7,000 aircraft filled the skies.
D-Day - and the liberation of Europe - had begun.
Facing them were massive concrete strongpoints bristling with Nazi artillery, machine gun nests.
