CANADA'S JUNO BEACH
https://youtu.be/QrkgV5bl7kQ
On June 5, 1944 many of the ships in the Allied D-Day fleet left port for the assault on Normandy, France.
The Second World War’s “D-Day” took place on June 6, 1944. It was a massive undertaking involving land, air and sea forces that took years of planning and preparation. Some 7,000 naval vessels of all types made up the Allied fleet, including 284 major combat vessels. Operation Overlord was originally scheduled to begin June 5, 1944 but bad weather resulted in it being postponed for a day. Pictured are Canadian soldiers en route to Juno Beach where they would come ashore to help begin the liberation of northwestern Europe after years of harsh Nazi occupation.
