June 6th, 1944Allied forces storm the beaches of Normandy, France, in the D-Day invasion of WWII. Commanding the massive operation General Dwight Eisenhower who tells the troops: “You are about to embark 1 upon the great crusade, toward which we have striven these many months. The eyes of the world are upon you.” Years later, D-Day veteran Vernon Grosscup recalls what he saw on the beaches firsthand: “The destruction that will end the death, the bodies lay all over, and other words I’ve seen death before but this was the all term I decide to say.” 1982In the Mid-east, Israel invades neighboring Lebanon, to drive out Yasser Arafat and his Palestinian fighters. Months later, Arafat and the PLO leadership leave Lebanon, relocating to Tunisia in North Africa. Israel withdraws most of its troops 3 years later, but holds a border zone in south Lebanon until 2000.
