Today is the seventieth anniversary of the Normandy landings during World War II. On this day, the Allied powers of United Kingdom, United States of America, France, Canada, and various European and Latin American powers joined together to launch an invasion of the Normandy region of France. The efforts of the brave men ultimately liberated the occupied nation from Nazi control and spelled the eventual defeat for Adolf Hitler.
