The Ultimate Duel.
The Affair of Honour
Allied Forces v Nazi Regime
6th June 1944.
This dispute had been raging since the 3rd September 1939 and the challenge accepted on this date.
The distance between combatants was kept a secret until "D" Day but once announced averaged some 135 miles.
The signal to fire was given just after midnight on the 6th June 1944.
The outcome was the freedom of Europe and all its peoples. The aggressors were tried at Nuremburg for war crimes.
To all the Allied Forces of 1939-1945
You won the Supreme Victory for the Civilised World.
Thank You.
