D-Day: 6 June 1944

on BBC Radio 4 FM

A documentary by ALAN HAYDOCK and DAN KELLEHER Early on 6 June 1944, the largest invasion fleet ever assembled began landing Allied troops on the Normandy beaches. Already, overnight, thousands of men had been flown in by gliders or dropped by parachute. The long-awaited Second Front had begun. D-Day: 6 June 1944 tells the story of that momentous beginning of the final phase in the defeat of Hitler through the voices of some of the men and women who were part of it.
