The Normandy landings were the landing operations and associated airborne operations on Tuesday, 6 June 1944 of the Allied invasion of Normandy in Operation Overlord during World War II. Codenamed Operation Neptune and often referred to as D-Day, it is the largest seaborne invasion in history.

The Radio Broadcast was done at a time when the technology and the ability for everything to work properly on a live broadcast had its issues. So there will be spots when you are waiting for them to connect with people from overseas.

You will be hearing the broadcast the way Most Americans heard it.
