The Normandy Landings, codenamed Operation Neptune, supported Operation Overlord and paved the way for the liberation of Europe. The Allies selected Normandy as the landing site for the invasion because it provided the best access to France’s interior. Initially planned for May 1944, the invasion was delayed until June due to a lack of landing craft. Weather conditions almost caused another delay, but Commander of the Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Force General Dwight Eisenhower made the decision to proceed as planned.

The Greatest Generation prepping for/executing something that would shape the world forever. I am glad God was on our side. Truly spectacular share and worth the 10 minute watch. Thank you John and sharing- maybe a few times.

Thank you for posting my friend SGT John " Mac " McConnell The assault on the Atlantic Wall in Operation Overlord was immensely costly in terms of life on all sides and well worth it in hindsight.
