2 - The first landings and the Airborne hang on

About this episode

”I was sitting in on the greatest show ever staged!” As the brave men and women of the Resistance hurried through the pre-dawn darkness, risking lives to sabotage the Germans, off the Normandy coast the first landing craft were ferrying Captain Moose Schroeder and his men towards Utah Beach – the Americans were coming. And just in time for their airborne compatriots, fighting desperately to survive inland.
