D-Day: 80th Anniversary Of The Normandy Landings

The American flag is flying on a tank in ''Camp Geronimo'' reenactment camp near the Airborne Museum 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. 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.
