“I know the longest day and all that stuff, but this really was a hell of a long day.” The first 24 hours of D-Day were make or break – on Gold, Juno and Sword beaches the British and Canadian forces had to get inland and dig in before the panzers arrived. Fail and they faced being thrown back into the sea.

“As our boat touched sand and the ramp went down, I became a visitor to hell.” Death was coming to Omaha beach, only few on the Allied side expected it to be directed their way with such devastating consequences. The Americans presumed they’d brush aside meagre German defences; instead they found themselves plunged into hell and history.

”I was sitting in on the greatest show ever staged!” As the brave men and women of the Resistance hurried through the pre-dawn darkness, risking lives to sabotage the Germans, off the Normandy coast the first landing craft were ferrying Captain Moose Schroeder and his men towards Utah Beach – the Americans were coming. And just in time for their airborne compatriots, fighting desperately to survive inland.

Tuesday, 6 June 1944 was barely an hour old when Major John Howard and the men of D Company, Ox and Bucks Light Infantry, hurtled out of the night sky above Normandy. Behind them the largest invasion force ever to set sail was approaching the French coast. After four long and brutal years of Nazi occupation, the liberation of mainland Europe was underway – D-Day had begun.
