Manage episode 422084989 series 1942697
It's the 80th anniversary of D-Day and Mat is breaking down the entire day by telling the story of each of the five beaches. It's a five-episode special series that will reveal the real story of the invasion of Normandy on June 6, 1944. Today the Americans are tasked with the toughest mission of D-Day: landing in front of the imposing cliffs and tough defences of Omaha Beach. Was 'Bloody Omaha' really as bloody as countless books and movies have told us?
In the first of our special series on the D-Day landings, Mat is joined by historian John McManus to tell the story of Omaha Beach.
Hosts: Mat McLachlan and John McManus
