On the evening of 5th June 1944, the people of Britain braced for news that would truly change the course of history. Ships and landing craft assembled in the Channel, paratroopers prepared for flight and troops readied for action. A brief announcement the following morning declared that D-Day had finally arrived. It would be the start of a long and arduous campaign to liberate Europe from the tyranny of Nazi occupation and defeat Hitler once and for all. 'D-Day to VE Day' narrates the final year of the Second World War in Europe, from the Normandy landings to the joyous celebrations of VE Day.
