Spuren des Kriegs - D-Day in der Normandie (2) - Port Winston

In der Bucht von Arromanche befinden sich die Überreste des Mulberry-Hafens, der zu Ehren von Winston Churchill den Namen "Port Winston" erhielt. Von hier aus sicherten die Alliierten mehrere Tage nach der erfolgreichen Landung den Nachschub an Waffen, Material und auch Soldaten.

    In 2014, the 70th anniversary of D-Day and the Battle of Normandy will be commemorated by many Allied Heads of State and hundreds of thousands of visitors from all over the world from June through till the end of August.The majority of Allied troops who landed on the D-Day beaches were from the United Kingdom, Canada and the USA. Allied Troops from many other countries participated in D-Day June 6,1944 and the Battle of Normandy, in all the different armed services: Australia, Belgium, Czechoslovakia, France, Greece, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway and Poland.Over 425,000 Allied and German troops were killed, wounded or went missing during the Battle of Normandy.

    We will remember them.
