Today marks the anniversary of the D-Day landings in Normandy. 81 years ago today the Greatest Generation pulled off what was thought to be impossible a few years earlier. Today we celebrate the great sacrifice of so many who died so that the Allies could start the march to Berlin.

Today's ship is the HMS Illustrious. Launched in 1939 and commissioned in 1940, she saw action in every theater of World War II. Her armored flight deck was a revolution at the time, and led to the US and Japanese to move to this design later in the war. 1/ #NavalHistory

Another episode we recorded recently and ready for editing. We decided this one's going to be our first two-parter, we didn't intend it to be, but we had lots to discuss!
Here's our subject......

From Germany we travelled to Krakow in Poland. From the books I have read there is so much history here . I happened to be in Poland on the 75th anniversary of the start of World War11 and we visited Auschwitz on September 1. The experience is sobering particularly in light of the today’s climate
