Planning for the operation began in 1943. In the months leading up to the invasion, the Allies conducted a substantial military deception, codenamed Operation Bodyguard, to mislead the Germans as to the date and location of the main Allied landings. The weather on D-Day was far from ideal, and the operation had to be delayed 24 hours; a further postponement would have meant a delay of at least two weeks, as the invasion planners had requirements for the phase of the moon, the tides, and the time of day that meant only a few days each month were deemed suitable. Adolf Hitler placed Field Marshal Erwin Rommel in command of German forces and of developing fortifications along the Atlantic Wall in anticipation of an Allied invasion. U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt placed Major General Dwight D. Eisenhower in command of Allied forces.

The amphibious landings were preceded by extensive aerial and naval bombardment and an airborne assault—the landing of 24,000 American, British, and Canadian airborne troops shortly after midnight. Allied infantry and armoured divisions began landing on the coast of France at 06:30. The target 50-mile (80 km) stretch of the Normandy coast was divided into five sectors: Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno, and Sword. Strong winds blew the landing craft east of their intended positions, particularly at Utah and Omaha. The men landed under heavy fire from gun emplacements overlooking the beaches, and the shore was mined and covered with obstacles such as wooden stakes, metal tripods, and barbed wire, making the work of the beach-clearing teams difficult and dangerous. Casualties were heaviest at Omaha, with its high cliffs. At Gold, Juno, and Sword, several fortified towns were cleared in house-to-house fighting, and two major gun emplacements at Gold were disabled using specialised tanks.

The Allies failed to achieve any of their goals on the first day. Carentan, Saint-Lô, and Bayeux remained in German hands, and Caen, a major objective, was not captured until 21 July. Only two of the beaches (Juno and Gold) were linked on the first day, and all five beachheads were not connected until 12 June; however, the operation gained a foothold that the Allies gradually expanded over the coming months. German casualties on D-Day have been estimated at 4,000 to 9,000 men. Allied casualties were documented for at least 10,000, with 4,414 confirmed dead. Museums, memorials, and war cemeteries in the area now host many visitors each year.

Eiffel Tower 

Paris,France  

~ For 130 years, the Eiffel Tower has been a powerful and distinctive symbol of the city of Paris, and by extension, of France. At first, when it was built for the 1889 World's Fair, it impressed the entire world by its stature and daring design, and symbolized French know-how and industrial genius.

~ The Eiffel Tower, La Tour Eiffel in French, was the main exhibit of the Paris Exposition — or World's Fair — of 1889. It was constructed to commemorate the centennial of the French Revolution and to demonstrate France's industrial prowess to the world.

~ Since the tower's 1889 opening, 250 million people from around the world have enjoyed all that the Eiffel Tower has to offer. And it has a lot to offer. The tower's three platforms are home to two restaurants, several buffets, a banquet hall, a champagne bar and many unique gift shops.

Thank You!

This January, the Tower played host to several exciting events including a fun-filled International Hug Day, visits from some legendary NBA players and the children from the PSG Foundation, as well as a fascinating dance performance for the Chinese New Year. Before the 2020 NBA Paris Game (between two American teams, the Charlotte Hornets and the Milwaukee Bucks), which took place on January 24 at AccorHotels Arena, the Eiffel Tower had the pleasure of welcoming some legendary NBA players for a press conference in the Gustave Eiffel Lounge on the first floor, on January 23. Bruce Bowen, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Ronny Turiaf and Tyrone Muggsy Bogues marveled at the view from the 1st floor of the Eiffel Tower. 

Fun fact: Paris is a city that's bursting at the seams with beauty. It's internationally renowned for its contributions to fashion, beauty, architecture, and of course, all of the arts, including the culinary. It's packed full of breath-taking landmarks, but there are few monuments in the world as iconic as the Eiffel Tower.

Stonehenge is perhaps the world's most famous prehistoric monument.

Stonehenge began as a basic earthwork enclosure where prehistoric humans buried their cremated dead about 5,000 years ago, and was built in stages. In the late Neolithic period, circa 2500 BC, a stone circle was built in the monument's center.

4. The function of this place in the past:
Although there is strong archaeological evidence that Stonehenge was used as a burial site at some point during its long history, most scholars believe it was also used as a ceremonial site, a religious pilgrimage destination, a final resting place for royalty, or a memorial erected to honor someone.

5. The function of this place in the present:
Stonehenge is the world's most structurally advanced prehistoric stone circle, whereas Avebury is the world's largest. They aid our understanding of Neolithic and Bronze Age ceremonial and burial behaviors by bringing together interconnected monuments and their surrounding environments.

6. Fun fact:
-Every year, over a million people visit Stonehenge. During peak times, there are over 9,000 visitors each day, with lines stretching just under a hundred meters from the ticket office to the parking lot.

- Some of the stones were brought from nearly 200 miles away.

- It was built by people who did not leave any written documents.
