Part of the million-selling MY STORY series that brings the past into the real world, giving it a truly human touch. D-DAY is the story of the Allied landings in Normandy. It's 1944, when Lieutenant Andy Pope takes part in the D-Day landings, crossing the English Channel to the beaches of Normandy. Ordered to cut off the Germans' line of retreat, Andy's company comes under sustained attack until, as the only unwounded officer left, Andy finds himself in command and fighting for survival.
