"Examines the D-Day invasion of Normandy using footage from the operation."
"The story of the Normandy Invasion on June 6, 1944 that liberated Europe from Hitler and the Nazi oppression, including rare color footage from the George Stevens Collection at the Library of Congress."
"It is first light on the 6th of June, 1944, D-Day. On this day, the Allies launched the largest combined land, air and sea operation ever from Southern England to liberate Europe from Hiler and Nazi oppression. Code name Overlord, the entire operation was a tremendous gamble. The element of surprise was paramount and through a tangle of intrigue, the German high command was led to believe the invasion would occur not at Normandy, but at Calais, only twenty miles from England across the narrow strait of Dover. The assault phase of Operation Overlord was a tremendous victory for the Allies. Six beachheads were established and more than 150,000 men and hundreds of tanks landed in Normandy. This series retells the compelling story of operation Overlord and includes rare color footage from the George Stevens Collection at the Library of Congress."
