Members from across @US_SOCEUR came together to honor the sacrifice of those who bravely served on #DDay 79 years ago.
We continue to strengthen our bonds with our European #Allies and #Partners. @NATO_SOF #StrongerTogether #SOFinEurope
To commemorate #DDay79, U.S. military service members with @USSOCOM-Europe jumped into Picauville, France.
At a staggering cost of 10,000 Allied casualties, #DDay did not just change the fate of #WWII, but the #Allied victory changed the course of human history.

#OTD in 1944, thousands of Allied troops landed in #Normandy. Despite suffering heavy losses, the Allied invasion was a #WWII turning point, leading to Europe's liberation from Nazi tyranny. We remember the courage & sacrifice of so many on this day 79 years ago. #DDay79

RT @francediplo: 79 ans après le débarquement, la France se souvient de ceux qui ont participé à sa Libération.

Sur les plages du débarquement, la sculpture "Les Braves" rend hommage à leur courage. #DDay79 #DevoirDeMémoire @MinColonna @MIRALLESMP @CaenMemorial

79 years ago, today 156,000 Allied forces landed in France and began the liberation of Western Europe from Nazi Germany. Today, as we mark this turning point in WWII #DDay79, we reiterate our commitment to safeguard and, if necessary, defend our democracies from authoritarian regimes.

79 years ago, General Eisenhower told his troops; "Let's go!" and Britain and our allies banded together side-by-side on the beaches of Normandy.
By plane, boat, glider, parachute and on foot they came. For that historic day, for strength & valour we thank you. #DDay79
