The Longest Day - A look back at the heroic Czech contribution to the D-Day landings (http://www.radio.cz/en/article/54667)
Czechoslovak participation in the first weeks of "Operation Overlord" — the invasion of Normandy — was almost exclusively limited to the air, as soldiers from occupied Czechoslovakia's 1st Armoured Brigade did not deploy to France until several weeks after the Allied landing's first wave. But hundreds more Czech fighting men took part in the D-Day landings doing battle under the flags of other Allied nations. Brian Kenety reports.
