Synopsis
D-Day, 6 June 1944, saw the largest amphibious landing in history. Airborne landings and massive air support led an armada of troopships and landing craft returning the Allies to mainland Europe. Stephen Badsoy describes 'Operation Overlord', from the fiercely contested landings, to the struggle to capture Caen, the 'Cobra' offensive, and the dramatic pursuit of the Germans to the Seine River.
