520 | 1 | _a"In this collection, thirteen New Zealand veterans recall their role as eyewitnesses to epic events. Sailors and airmen, they remember the chaos and triumph of D-Day itself, and recollect the long months that followed as the Allies recaptured France, Belgium and Holland from the German forces. Included are the memories of a French woman, a feisty Resistance worker who helped a young New Zealand airman to safety."--BOOK JACKET. | |
