The USAAF strategic bombing campaign achieved this by crippling the Luftwaffe’s fighter force in battles over Germany before D-Day. USAAF bombers also destroyed airfields that could threaten the invasion and continued to hit them after D-Day. #DDay80 #DDay | National Museum of the U.S. Air Force | Facebook

82nd Airborne Hold The Line. The role of the 82nd Airborne on D-Day was a crucial one, defending the western flank of the invasion for the forces coming ashore at Utah Beach. Today, Iron Mike stands watch over the causeway at La Fiere, the scene of some of the most brutal fighting experienced by the paratroopers and glider riders of the 82nd Airborne on and after D-Day, June 6th 1944. #DDay81 #DDay #82ndairborne #paratroopers #ironmike #82ndairbornedivision #normandy | WW2 Wayfinder
