{"product_id":"9781732517226","title":"D-Day: Soldiers, Sailors and Airmen Tell about Normandy (World War II Insider)","description":"The Allied invasion of Europe on June 6, 1944, should have never succeeded. Stormy weather caused a last-minute delay. Then, there were the terrifying experiences of crossing the English Channel under cover of darkness to beaches filled with landmines and barbed wire. If they made it that far, they still needed to scale bluffs honeycombed with gun emplacements to fight German soldiers dug in at the top.Yet, in a matter of days, the Allies - Americans, Canadians, British - managed to take all five beachheads of Normandy, which led to freeing France and ending the war.In this collection of statements from veterans who were there learn what it was like to see buddies die and wondering if every step would the last. Their stories provide a personal point of view from recent interviews with some of the last remaining soldiers to have fought there. Kayleen Reusser has interviewed hundreds of military veterans, including 250 from World War II. She has written other books on World War II and is a speaker. She is the wife and mother of Air Force airmen.
