Today, in honor of the 75th anniversary of D-Day, we remember the bravery and unbridled patriotism of those who stormed the beaches of Normandy in the largest amphibious invasion in history.
“We shall fight on the beaches”
How D-Day unfolded. Accompanied by Sir Winston Churchill’s post-Dunkirk speech to the House of Commons almost 4 years to the day before the landings.

This former paratrooper recreated his parachute jumps into Normandy for the 75th anniversary. Now he’s 97, think about that.
