In 1944, Europe's future hung in the balance. Our 3-part series follows
the story of Allied forces--from Normandy to the assault on Germany--and
the victories that led to WWII's end in 1945. We begin on the day after
D-Day, unfolding over the summer of 1944 as the initial narrow sliver of
French coastline gained by the Allies is slowly extended. By the end of
August, Allied victory seemed assured. Rommel had been wounded, Hitler
was directing the battle, and the German army was in full retreat.

  • Exactly, you're 15 ...

    Exactly, you're 15 years old. It would be funny of my part to pay ANY attention at all, on what you're saying. And AGAIN, travel a little bit, and ask what people REALLY think about your country. I have traveled all over the world, and my country does not stick its nose where it shouldnt, so the world doesnt hate us. :) You barely have a 200 year history. How did the world exist without you for over 2000 years, im shocked! hahaha.

WAY TO GO! YOU HAVE ROYALY EMBARASSED YOURSELF AND YOUR COUNRTY. Have a nice day.

  • WOW, i'm 15 and I ...

    WOW, i'm 15 and I know more than you're sorry ass ever will. Where would the world be had we not came in and helped? Russia was doing their part in the east, but Britain was continuously urging the US to join on the western front. The British made very little progress on their own, and needed help from the best. I'm thankful for the Russians, but can't say I, or you, would be very happy right now had they saved all of Europe, then converted it all to the "Empire of the Russian Communist Idiots."

  • Listen kid, im way ...

    Listen kid, im way too busy to argue with you. Ill tell you the following, your country has brought much more suffering to the world than helped anyone. So If I were you, I would sit quiet in the corner and be ashamed of myself. Remember that the world existed long time without your stupid country, i dont know what makes you think that we need you. haha. I know it would feels good to feel that you're needed, but come on, stop fooling yourselves.

  • You saved the jews ...

    You saved the jews by koining the ones exterminating? That's makes perfect sense.

    Oh, and i'm not sure what Bulgarian assholes like you would do if you're attacked, lose 3,000 armed forces personnel and civilains, and a good majority of your Navy and airplanes, but we chose to fight, and since we declared war on the Japanese( they were also part of the Axis, you probably didn't know that one) which means we also declared war on Italy and Germany. Thus, we save your sorry asses.
