Behind the Invasion: Stephen Ambrose on the Work That Made D-Day Possible
Description
On this episode of Our American Stories, before Allied troops stormed the beaches of Normandy, D-Day was a plan held together by men and machines working in silence. Few have told that story better than historian Stephen Ambrose. Drawing from years of research and interviews, Ambrose brought to life the people who turned one of history’s most complex operations into a triumph of courage and coordination. In this episode, we feature Stephen Ambrose in his own words, sharing how D-Day took shape: from the first sketches of landing craft to the final hours before dawn on June 6, 1944. Our thanks to the estate of Stephen E. Ambrose for allowing us access to this remarkable audio.
