Operation Neptune 1944: D-day`s Seaborne Armada

June 6th, 1944: the largest fleet in history landed Eisenhower`s Allied army on the beaches of Normandy against Erwin Rommel`s Nazi German defenses. Operation Neptune was the greatest naval operation ever undertaken, and almost seventy years on from D-Day, the story of the greatest armada seen in world history is still not widely known. With the forthcoming anniversary of D-Day in 2014, the time is right for the story to be told again in the style of the Campaign series.
