NotesCD featuring more than two hours of archive British WW2 broadcast recordings covering the D-Day landings and Battle of Normandy in June 1944. D-Day & the Battle of Normandy (Vol 1) consists of 2 full length audio CDs with a total playing time of 2 hours 30 minutes. The carefully restored recordings (all made in June 1944) include dispatches by war correspondents, actuality recordings made on the beaches and battlefields, and personal accounts by British service personnel. These range from battle recordings from Quistreham, Tilly and Cheaux, broadcasts by Generals Eisenhower and Montgomery, and Winston Churchill, and personal accounts by the winner of the sole Victoria Cross awarded on D-Day, a Typhoon ground-attack pilot and paratrooper of the 6th Airborne Division. These historic recordings, many of which have not been heard since 1944, are presented in an attractive deluxe package featuring detailed historical notes and relevant images.
