Lt. Gen. Richard E. Angle, commander of Allied Special Operations Command, provides remarks during the French Resistance Monument Ceremony on June 4, 2025. The French Resistance Monument was erected in 2021 to honor the contributions of Special Operations Forces in Europe. The success of the elite Jedburgh teams during WWII was due in part to support from the French Resistance. U.S. military personnel will commemorate the 81st anniversary of Operation Overlord, the Allied invasion of Normandy on June 6, 1944, widely known as D-Day. Service members from approximately 25 units will take part in more than 80 commemorative events from June 3 to June 8, in approximately 40 French communities throughout the Normandy region -- including a bilateral ceremony at Normandy American Cemetery on June 6, and a commemorative airborne operation on June 8.
