June 6 is the 65th anniversary of D-Day, the Allied landing on the north coast of France in 1944. The invasion spelled the beginning of the end for the Nazis in Western Europe and forced Germany to shift focus away from the Soviet advance on the Eastern Front. Here, 4,000 Union Jacks have been stuck into the sand on Gold Beach in Asnelles, France in honor of Saturday's anniversary.
