Midnight had not long struck when the British and American airborne armada began its mission on 6 June 1944 in the moonlight.
Failure would have given Hitler the opportunity to initiate an eleventh-hour attempt to save Germany and launch his new V-weapons against British cities. Success meant the beginning of the end of the Third Reich. A soldier returns to tell of that day, one of the most important in history. Learn the difference between the weapons and equipment of the land and airborne troops and how they worked together to bring victory.VenueBourne Hall Museum Kid's Club
