On June 6, 1944, Allied troops executed the largest seaborne invasion in history on the beaches of Normandy, France. D-Day is a time to remember the sacrifices made by those who participated in this mission. Today marks a significant commemoration: individuals who were 20 years old when Allied soldiers stormed the beaches of Normandy on June 6, 1944, are now centenarians.
