D-Day: 80th Anniversary Of The Normandy Landings

D-Day: 80th Anniversary Of The Normandy Landings

Enthusiasts are wearing replica WWII military attire and looking on as the effigy of WWII veteran US Army 82nd Airborne paratrooper John Steele hangs from a church steeple in Sainte-Mere-Eglise, northwestern France, on June 4, 2024, as part of the ''D-Day'' commemorations marking the 80th anniversary of the World War II Allied landings in Normandy. John Steele is hanging helplessly from the church steeple before being taken prisoner by German troops, after his parachute entangled on the structure as he landed on D-Day. The D-Day ceremonies on June 6 this year are marking the 80th anniversary since the launch of 'Operation Overlord', a vast military operation by Allied forces in Normandy, which is turning the tide of World War II, eventually leading to the liberation of occupied France and the end of the war against Nazi Germany.
