3 fascinating documentaries detailing the preparation, tactics and action that brought together this historic day:
More than 5,000 ships, ranging in size from battleships to landing craft, landed 156,000 troops on five beaches along 50 miles of Normandy coastline, code-named Gold, Juno, Sword, Utah and Omaha. Above them, more than 1,000 planes dropped paratroopers to secure the flanks and beach exits as the allied forces, under the command of General Dwight D Eisenhower, began their assault on Adolf Hitler's 'Fortress Europe'.
