Product Review

On the morning of June 6th, 1944, the waters of the English Channel along Omaha Beach ran red with the blood of young American soldiers. It was 'D-Day'--the Allied invasion of Normandy, France. "Operation Overlord" was the biggest military operation in history, aimed at toppling Adolf Hitler's brutal regime.

In this compelling episode of "War Stories with Oliver North," you'll hear from some of the brave servicemen who slogged through neck-deep waters weighed down by a hundred pounds of gear, braving blistering enemy fire to reach shore. You'll meet paratroopers Bob Murphy and Vinnie Vicari who parachuted behind enemy lines dodging bullets and anti-aircraft shells as they fell. You'll also hear from U.S. Army Ranger Len Lomell, who received a Distinguished Service Cross for his courage and determination at deadly Pointe-du-Hoc.

We'll also pay tribute to those you can't hear from, the 29,000 others whose lives were taken from them to preserve America's freedoms and liberate Europe from Nazi domination. This, too, is their story.
