Description

In-Person with Hugh Schoelzel & Nancy Schuler


June 6, 1944 will always be remembered as D-Day and the decisive turning point in World War II. Operation Overload was one of the largest amphibious assaults in history and demonstrated the Allies’ commitment to restoring freedom in Europe. 2,501 American soldiers were killed on that infamous date.

Join Hugh Schoelzel as he shares photos and stories of ceremonies in Normandy that mark this date each year.
