The Great Challenge

The story of the key turning point of the Second World War, which started on June 6, 1944. A titanic fleet took on the beaches of Normandy, intent on liberating Europe from Hitler's Nazis. Thanks to the lessons learned from the Dieppe raid of August 1942 and supported by the Provence landing of August 1944, the mission was a spectacular success as the Allies succeeded in moving beyond their political differences, overcoming logistical difficulties and carrying out an operation with unprecedented military stakes.
