On 6 June, 1944, thousands of Allied servicemen landed on the shores of northern France with a mission to free western Europe from Nazi tyranny. Over the ensuing hours and days, the men faced decimating machine-gun fire, mortars and artillery, eventually fighting their way inland, but not before suffering a staggering number of casualties.Day of Days: June 6, 1944 commemorates the 70th anniversary of the Normandy landing by bringing together American D-Day veterans to share their experiences from that fateful day.
As they vividly recall details from their ordeal from the perils of the amphibious assault to the invasion's gruesome aftermath; their testimony yields long-buried and often painful memories. They recount their transformations from boys to men, reveal their uneasiness with the term; hero; and grapple with why they survived when so many others did not.
