ABOUT EF

Walking on the peaceful beaches of Normandy, it’s hard to imagine the violence and valor of June 6, 1944.
But D-Day—and so many other crucial moments of World War II—come into focus when you set foot in war rooms and explore the battlefields and memorabilia that altered the course of history. From London to Paris to Berlin, these sites invite reflection on and remembrance of the Allied victory in Europe.
