On June 6, 1944, approximately 14,000 Canadian soldiers spearheaded the Allied assault on the 8-kilometer stretch of the Normandy coast codenamed "Juno Beach". Supported by 110 Royal Canadian Navy ships and 15 Royal Canadian Air Force squadrons, Canadian troops successfully penetrated heavily defended enemy lines and pushed further inland than any other Allied force that day.
We will remember them.
