In the run-up to:- "Operation Overlord" (D-Day) the invasion of Normandy, which started on:- Tuesday, 6 June 1944, preparations began back in November 1943, with a series of exercises with various code names. This event takes its name from:- "Exercise Tiger," or "Operation Tiger," which took place in April 1944.  "Exercise Tiger" was the codename for one of a series of large-scale rehearsals for D-Day. By 1944, over 2 million troops from over 12 countries were in Britain in preparation for the invasion. On D-Day, the invasion was conducted in 2 main phases, an airborne assault and amphibious landings. Over 14,000 sorties were flown by Allied Air Forces in support of the landings. Having secured air supremacy prior to the invasion, many of these flights were unchallenged by the Luftwaffe.

Please remember:-
THURSDAY, 6 JUNE 2024 is the anniversary:- 'D-DAY 80'
