Monday marked the 78th anniversary of D-Day, a moment that changed the course of history.
On June 6, 1944, nearly 160,000 Allied troops landed on the beaches of Normandy, France.
This marked the start of a lengthy and costly campaign to liberate Europe from Nazi occupation.
More than 4,400 Allied soldiers lost their lives on D-Day, including 2,500 Americans.
