Americans Landing in Normandy
American troops in landing craft go ashore on Normandy beach on D-Day, June 6, 1944. The landing was part of an all-out Allied assault on northern France, the beginning of a sweep through Europe that would eventually defeat Nazi Germany.


General Eisenhower addressing the D-Day Troops.
"You are about to embark upon a great crusade...good luck! And let us all beseech the blessing of the almighty God upon this great
and noble undertaking."
