Today marks the anniversary of the Allied landings at Normandy.

Engineer troops provided landing support for more than 50,000 men and well over 4,000 vehicles. Engineers composed 25 percent of the force the Allies landed.

Please join us as we pay tribute to those who sacrificed their lives in defense of global peace and security. The threats have changed, but the same elite warfighting resolve that turned the tide in 1944 defends global security today.
