Today is the 82nd anniversary of the pivotal invasion at Normandy, widely known as D-Day.
As American, Canadian, French and British troops landed in a combined seaborne and aerial attack on the beach in northern France, they launched an all-out effort on the occupied territories of western Europe in an operation that would ultimately lead to an Allied victory.
