2027 D-Day: Invasion of Normandy and Liberation of France
For more than two-and-a-half years, the Allies planned and gathered their military strength to launch the decisive amphibious invasion of northern France and strike a mortal blow against the Third Reich. In anticipation, Adolf Hitler stockpiled reserve units in the Atlantic Wall defenses across the French coastline, determined to drive the Allied forces back into the sea when the invasion was finally launched. There would be no second chance for the Allies: the fate of the continent hung upon this decisive day.
In the early minutes of June 6, 1944, Allied paratroopers and gliders descended from the night sky to wrest control of key bridges and roadways from the Nazi occupiers. Behind them, in the darkness of early morning, an initial force of over 130,000 servicemembers from the Allied nations crossed a choppy English Channel aboard an armada of more than 5,000 ships. Their destination was Normandy: D-day had arrived.
