Summary

Relive D-day for the first time!

From the opening reports of paratroop landings by German broadcasters to the evening prayer of President Roosevelt, listen to each heart-stopping hour of live broadcasting from one of the most momentous days of the 20th century.

The Allies have landed at Normandy! A 4,000-ship armada! Heavy bombardments! Paratroopers! You will hear 24 full hours of crackling reports from London Radio; Eisenhower's Order of the Day and his personal message to the troops; the King of England; live recordings from troop boats, reconnaissance planes, paratroop transport planes, and the signal bridge of a naval vessel; live reports from the House of Representatives and the White House; and more! It's all here - the complete broadcast day of June 6, 1944.

Not really worth it, poor quality

The subject matter is 5*, but I just found the quality of the audio too poor to continue to the end. Needs to be digitally restored and better editing.
