We love nothing more than freedom!
Normandy, June 6, 1944! History has set the stage for one of those epics that have left an indelible mark on human memory.
Writers, journalists and war correspondents will recount the gigantic landing of troops from all over the world. Like Robert Capa, who set off in a storm of steel with the first assault wave to Omaha Beach, bringing back pictures that have become famous.
From the preparations for D-Day to the Liberation, this kaleidoscope of decisive moments is a moving reminder that "the fortitude, goodness and optimism of each and every one of us are the strongest and most heroic bulwarks against the forces of darkness" (Richard Whelan). At the end of fear, suffering and death, freedom reclaims its rights like a rainbow over the bocage!
An event awarded the French government's "Mission Libération" label. As part of the 80th anniversary of D-Day and the Battle of Normandy.
