Descripción:

- The Battle of Normandy, also known as D-Day, was one of the pivotal events of WWII, and the scene of some of Canada's greatest feats of arms.

- Canadian sailors, soldiers and airmen played a critical role in the Allied invasion force that swept into France that summer

- In the end, with heavy costs, the Allies emerged victorious, having broke through the Atlantic Wall.

- This battle reaffirms for me that Britain and France now thought of Canadians as equals, and not simply cannon fodder to throw at the enemy, at this point in history
