It was when Allied forces began landing in Normandy in northern | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
France in what was the largest amphibious invasion in history. It | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
was a gamble, but it turned the tide of the Second World War. World | :01:51. | :01:58. | |

Where some of those who survived and grew old remembered the many who did | :02:17. | :02:20. | |

other graves of more than 4000 young men, mostly British, who died on | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
D-Day or in the weeks of fighting that followed. As the Queen arrived | :02:33. | :02:40. | |
to lead the tribute of Britain and the Commonwealth, aircraft from the | :02:41. | :02:41. | |
Second World War through past overhead. Wreaths were laid at the | :02:42. | :03:00. | |
stone of remembrance. We Shell not grow old as those that are left grow | :03:01. | :03:03. | |
old. We will remember them. The veterans had been seated amongst | :03:04. | :03:34. | |
the headstones upon which the inscriptions which have lost none of | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
their emotional impact with the passing of the years. They are the | :03:39. | :03:44. | |
tribute of families, mothers, wives, the men who gave their lives | :03:45. | :03:53. | |
so that a continent might be free. After the service, the Queen joined | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
the veterans, she mingled and chatted, a monarch from the same | :03:58. | :04:01. | |

military Cemetery of the United States of America. There are nearly | :04:14. | :04:19. | |
10,000 graves here, a reminder of the ferocious resistance the | :04:20. | :04:22. | |
Americans faced at Omaha Beach and of a time when the New World | :04:23. | :04:29. | |
sacrificed so much blood for the old. President Obama said that what | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
the Allied troops had achieved on what he called this tiny sliver of | :04:34. | :04:38. | |
sand and determine the course of history. Whenever the world makes | :04:39. | :04:47. | |
you cynical, whenever you doubt that courage and goodness is possible, | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
think of these men along with all of our veterans. If you can stand, | :04:52. | :04:58. | |
please do, if you cannot, please raise your hand, these men waged war | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
so that we might know peace. They sacrificed so that we might be free. | :05:04. | :05:12. | |
We are grateful to them. On Sword Beach, the heads of state | :05:13. | :05:16. | |
and heads of Government assembled for the official commemoration. | :05:17. | :05:22. | |
Germany's Chancellor Angela Merkel was greeted with warm applause and | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
then a reminder of today's diplomatic difficulties. Over | :05:28. | :05:32. | |
lunch, Russia's Putin and Obama had their first face-to-face discussion | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
about Ukraine as they watched the men -- and events on Sword Beach, | :05:36. | :05:41. | |
they were cut up side-by-side on screens. | :05:42. | :05:53. | |
Then something else unexpected, a video and dramatic re-enactment of | :05:54. | :05:59. | |
the Second World War compete with explicit reference of the natty | :06:00. | :06:04. | |
brutality and the Holocaust. This is one anniversary where even the most | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
sensitive issues are being dealt with openly. -- Nazi brutality. | :06:09. | :06:17. | |
Above all, this day has been for the veterans, many frail now, it is time | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
to pass the stories of what they did to new generations. So this | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
afternoon Prince William and the Duchess of Cambridge joined a group | :06:26. | :06:32. | |
of the dish veterans at a key party. -- British veterans. In the centre | :06:33. | :06:41. | |
of the town of Arromanches, all soldiers paraded for a future king. | :06:42. | :06:50. | |
It was a chance for them to remember so many friends who never made it | :06:51. | :06:52. | |
home. It was a chance for us to express | :06:53. | :07:12. | |
our gratitude for so much sacrifice. The Soviet Union under Stalin played | :07:13. | :07:24. | |
a key role in defeating the Nazis. It provided an opportunity for | :07:25. | :07:27. | |
President Putin to hold direct talks with a newly elected Ukrainian | :07:28. | :07:32. | |
president Petro Poroshenko. That meeting was facilitated by the | :07:33. | :07:38. | |
German chancellor. The Kremlin says the Russian and Ukrainian leaders | :07:39. | :07:42. | |
called for a swift and of the bloodshed and military actions in | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
eastern Ukraine. D-Day was the beginning of the end | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
of Adolf Hitler and Nazi Germany. The defeat of Germany resulted in | :07:51. | :07:56. | |
the spirit of the country into East and West. 70 years on, how is the | :07:57. | :08:03. | |
battle remembered in present-day Germany? Stephen Evans have -- has | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
been speaking to one German soldier about being on the other side of the | :08:09. | :08:13. | |
D-Day landings. He was the first German soldier to | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
face the D-Day invasion. He was at the bridge when the first airborne | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
British troops landed in gliders. Pegasus Bridge was crucial, Allied | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
planners wanted it captured to stop German reinforcements arriving when | :08:28. | :08:33. | |
the landings happened. He was on guard. TRANSLATION: I was the first | :08:34. | :08:44. | |
to notice when the gliders and troops landed. I fired a flare. This | :08:45. | :08:53. | |
was how the invasion started. It was all I did. D-Day was the big step in | :08:54. | :09:02. | |
the defeat of Nazi Germany. If you want to know how total that defeat | :09:03. | :09:07. | |
was, coming here to the Nazi nerve centre, Hitler's bunker, flattened | :09:08. | :09:09. | |
today. Nothing more than a car park. At the time, Berliners read about | :09:10. | :09:26. | |
D-Day, Hitler slept late, but that was not in the papers and then | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
welcomed the invasion because it's brought the enemy closer. Today, | :09:31. | :09:36. | |
D-Day is not marked much in Germany. According to the military's chief | :09:37. | :09:41. | |
historian. It never had the same significance | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
which it had in Britain or the US or even in France. Because it did | :09:47. | :09:54. | |
indeed remind us not only of a defeat, but of war crimes. There is | :09:55. | :10:02. | |
a footnote. The captured German soldier is grateful to | :10:03. | :10:04. | |
a footnote. The captured German and Canadians for his time in a | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
prisoner of war camp. He was taught English and entertained, he said it | :10:10. | :10:18. | |
was like a holiday camp. As those ceremonies were taking | :10:19. | :10:22. | |
place, many of those taking part said how much they hoped that the | :10:23. | :10:26. | |
Second World War would never be forgotten by their children and | :10:27. | :10:30. | |
grandchildren. We have been finding out what the pupils of one school in | :10:31. | :10:33. | |
Staffordshire made of D-Day. In the heart of Staffordshire, among | :10:34. | :10:48. | |
the trees, 300 miles from the Normandy beaches, a service of | :10:49. | :10:53. | |
commemoration. Some came to the national memorial to remember, some | :10:54. | :10:58. | |
to learn of the sacrifice of a number generation. That sacrifice is | :10:59. | :11:02. | |
something pupils of this school were discussing today. I want to talk | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
about why it is still important today. White is still important to | :11:08. | :11:15. | |
remember the veterans who fought. It is extraordinary to think that the | :11:16. | :11:19. | |
youngest known British casualty of the Second World War was a boil on a | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
Merchant Navy ship who was 14 years old, the same age as some of its | :11:24. | :11:33. | |
class. -- a boy on a. Today's society would not have that | :11:34. | :11:37. | |
courage, because people think of teenagers as being on the racks box, | :11:38. | :11:51. | |
but they went out. -- X box. If someone said there is a war going | :11:52. | :11:57. | |
on, can you come and help? I would just be thinking, what is going on? | :11:58. | :12:02. | |
But they did not have much detail and they just went and did what they | :12:03. | :12:05. | |
had to do and hats off to them, they get it. -- hatss off to them. | :12:06. | :12:15. | |
Whatever the doubts of their own generation's courage, these | :12:16. | :12:18. | |
youngsters are proof that the sacrifice made by so many 70 years | :12:19. | :12:26. | |
ago will be remembered. I have been joined here in the | :12:27. | :12:28. | |
studio to With me is Thomas Kielinger , | :12:29. | :12:32. | |
the London correspondent And joining us from the BBC's studio | :12:33. | :12:35. | |
in Oxford is Gary Sheffield, a professor of war studies | :12:36. | :12:40. | |
from Wolverhampton University. we now know that D-Day was a turning | :12:41. | :12:49. | |
point in the Second World War, but actually it was a bit of a gamble | :12:50. | :12:53. | |
and a costly endeavour in both lives and money. | :12:54. | :12:59. | |
Yes, it was. It was certainly not a given that D-Day would succeed. | :13:00. | :13:06. | |
Anything as risky as that, a huge amphibious operation with supporting | :13:07. | :13:08. | |
aircraft, things could have gone wrong. In the end, I think it was a | :13:09. | :13:17. | |
measure of luck, superiority in terms of material, and the sheer | :13:18. | :13:23. | |
courage of the people involved which made sure that D-Day was successful. | :13:24. | :13:31. | |
Thomas, we look back at it as a success. But you don't look at it in | :13:32. | :13:41. | |
the same way in Germany. It is something that Germans wants to | :13:42. | :13:44. | |
forget as they were fighting on the wrong side, as it were? Absolutely. | :13:45. | :13:53. | |
But don't forget that we have been going through World War I recently, | :13:54. | :14:01. | |
there have been new books on who was guilty for the start of the war on | :14:02. | :14:09. | |
Germany has been, to some extent, not only the only force that started | :14:10. | :14:14. | |
it. We haven't quite got and onto the Second World War. That'll come | :14:15. | :14:21. | |
in September when the 75 year anniversary comes. Altogether, | :14:22. | :14:24. | |
Germany is not too happy looking back at war events. We didn't cover | :14:25. | :14:32. | |
ourselves in glory, to put it mildly, and we were the vanquished. | :14:33. | :14:37. | |
Although our soldiers fought and it is generally recognised with great | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
valour, they spent all their virtues on the wrong side and the wrong | :14:43. | :14:45. | |
course, which is a terrible heritage. Professor Sheffield, it | :14:46. | :14:58. | |
helps shape the modern day as we know it, World War II, and even in a | :14:59. | :15:03. | |
country like Britain, it ushered in the world Betamax welfare state, so | :15:04. | :15:09. | |
it had a massive impact. -- ushered in the welfare state. But the | :15:10. | :15:17. | |
younger population as a whole are aware of what World War II means, do | :15:18. | :15:23. | |
you think? I would like to pick up on what you think? I would like to | :15:24. | :15:26. | |
pick up on what your other contributors said. The idea that | :15:27. | :15:29. | |
Germany was not responsible for the outbreak of the First World War is | :15:30. | :15:33. | |
certainly true, Austria Hungary was to a great extent, but the idea that | :15:34. | :15:39. | |
Germany was not the primary mover in the First World War is something I | :15:40. | :15:43. | |
would slightly disagree with. We can't go down that line too much. | :15:44. | :15:48. | |
But we need to see the two world wars as effectively a single | :15:49. | :15:57. | |
conflict with a 20 year truce. I am not telling a story on what to | :15:58. | :16:01. | |
think, but at the end of World War I the conditions in Germany gave rise | :16:02. | :16:06. | |
to fascism because of the way that Germany was dealt with after the | :16:07. | :16:09. | |
First World War, treated very differently after the end of the | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
Second World War, lots of money going into West Germany, in | :16:14. | :16:22. | |
particular. At the end of the Second World War, Germany was treated far | :16:23. | :16:26. | |
more harshly. The Nazi state was completely destroyed and two more | :16:27. | :16:29. | |
states built on the remains. The end of the First World War, there is | :16:30. | :16:32. | |
absolutely no reason why the Treaty of Versailles couldn't have been | :16:33. | :16:36. | |
made to stick. Let's bring this a bit more towards today. The point I | :16:37. | :16:40. | |
was making, after World War II, a lot of money of course went into | :16:41. | :16:43. | |
Germany, which was devastated and so on, but it is what West Germany | :16:44. | :16:49. | |
built its subsequent economic miracle success on. This is the | :16:50. | :16:54. | |
point that we like to look at with a certain amount of pride, Angela | :16:55. | :16:57. | |
Merkel and the group session of world leaders reminds us of the way | :16:58. | :17:01. | |
we have come since 1945 and how we have rebuilt our country with due | :17:02. | :17:07. | |
process and liberty and justice for all, which has become a recognised | :17:08. | :17:13. | |
and valued member, Germany, in the community of nations. Because your | :17:14. | :17:18. | |
institutions were all reformed after the Second World War, land reform, | :17:19. | :17:21. | |
trade unions and that sort of thing. Yes, we called it re-education but | :17:22. | :17:25. | |
it was really reinvigoration of the idea of Western liberty that really | :17:26. | :17:29. | |
rescued Germany and put it on the path to recovery. That picture of | :17:30. | :17:33. | |
world leaders now, with Germany stood on the other side of that, is | :17:34. | :17:38. | |
a very reassuring sort of re-imagination for the modern day. | :17:39. | :17:41. | |
That is the aspect we rather like about this commemoration. The war | :17:42. | :17:44. | |
itself does not fill us with any pride, obviously, and we try not to | :17:45. | :17:51. | |
think about that too much. Professor Sheffield, your reflection on the | :17:52. | :17:54. | |
commemorations in Normandy, what is your take on that? I think it is a | :17:55. | :17:58. | |
very timely reminder of the sheer sacrifice made by men and women to | :17:59. | :18:04. | |
liberate Europe, and also, I think it is worth bearing in mind what | :18:05. | :18:11. | |
that impact has on the world today. I absolutely agree, Germany has been | :18:12. | :18:15. | |
rebuilt into a new model, and of course, it is now firmly locked into | :18:16. | :18:23. | |
the European community of nations. But it is easy for us to reflect on | :18:24. | :18:27. | |
what might have been. Personally, I actually think that if D-Day had | :18:28. | :18:30. | |
failed, Germany would still have been defeated, but pretty much | :18:31. | :18:36. | |
solely by the soviet union. Moving away from Germany, the | :18:37. | :18:39. | |
commemorations, you think they are striking the right chord? In your | :18:40. | :18:44. | |
view, what are we remembering 70 years later, this tremendous | :18:45. | :18:48. | |
sacrifice by service men and women? I think we are remembering the way | :18:49. | :18:52. | |
in which Europe was diverted from a very dark path indeed into something | :18:53. | :18:57. | |
which, for all the faults of the world since 1945, has been much | :18:58. | :19:00. | |
better. We should actually remember those men and women who made that | :19:01. | :19:07. | |
happen. Thomas, yes. The commemoration of the heroism and the | :19:08. | :19:12. | |
courage to land in the face of machine gun fire from on high is | :19:13. | :19:15. | |
absolutely almost unconscionable. It is very hard to imagine how a modern | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
generation would deal with it. Although I think that the parallels | :19:20. | :19:23. | |
would be quite wrong, you cannot compare then and now. If there were | :19:24. | :19:27. | |
a situation which could ask for the ultimate sacrifice, the modern | :19:28. | :19:31. | |
generation would also find in themselves the courage and virtue to | :19:32. | :19:34. | |
apply themselves and commit themselves if it is worth fighting. | :19:35. | :19:39. | |
But those were horrible days, and only a huge effort and sacrifice, | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
through heroism and dedication, made this possible. We can only bow our | :19:45. | :19:50. | |
heads before them. Thomas, I want to ask you, because I asked Professor | :19:51. | :19:54. | |
Sheffield about the younger generation. Out of younger | :19:55. | :19:57. | |
generation of Germans see this? Popular culture has kept the | :19:58. | :20:00. | |
nastiness, the evil of the Nazis very much alive, through films we | :20:01. | :20:04. | |
have of the Second World War and so on. Do they feel in some way that | :20:05. | :20:10. | |
that has led to a kind of current demonisation of Germans today? Not | :20:11. | :20:14. | |
really, but the thing is, we are very much aware of the past. It has | :20:15. | :20:19. | |
been expunged from our system, as it were. Germany has very valiantly | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
looked it in the face and read itself of it, but it is still with | :20:24. | :20:27. | |
us. On certain days, when we commemorate what was done by Hitler | :20:28. | :20:31. | |
to the Jews and two other minorities in Germany and so on. That casts a | :20:32. | :20:36. | |
shadow over the attempt of young generations to rebuild a natural, | :20:37. | :20:40. | |
unselfconscious patriotism, which is still very difficult to rebuild in | :20:41. | :20:43. | |
Germany because of the weight of the past and what went RIA in our | :20:44. | :20:50. | |
history. We are a country of disk annuity, and while we have rebuilt | :20:51. | :20:55. | |
the country, we cannot escape the horror of what happened in our name. | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
Thomas Kielinger and Gary Sheffield, thank you very much indeed. | :21:01. | :21:06. | |
In other news, the frontrunner in Afghanistan's presidential election, | :21:07. | :21:09. | |
Abdullah Abdullah, has survived a bomb attack in trouble. Six people | :21:10. | :21:13. | |
are reported killed and more than a dozen injured. Mr Abdullah said two | :21:14. | :21:17. | |
explosions struck his convoy as it was leading a campaign event in the | :21:18. | :21:24. | |
capital. Our reporter has this. The attack happened as Doctor | :21:25. | :21:28. | |
Abdullah left an election rally. A suicide attacker drove his vehicle, | :21:29. | :21:33. | |
packed with explosives, at the armoured convoy belonging to Doctor | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
Abdullah and his presidential running mate. The blast was so | :21:39. | :21:42. | |
powerful it destroyed vehicles, and shattered windows in nearby shops | :21:43. | :21:48. | |
and houses. Ambulances rushed the injured to hospital. Most of those | :21:49. | :21:53. | |
killed were civilians. A police man and one of Doctor Abdullah's | :21:54. | :21:55. | |
bodyguards were also among the casualties. TRANSLATION: The convoy | :21:56. | :22:04. | |
of Doctor Abdullah Abdullah and his deputy was attacked by a suicide | :22:05. | :22:07. | |

the Golden Temple in Amritsar in northern India, the holiest shrine | :22:29. | :22:31. | |
of the Sikh religion. Several people were injured as rival factions | :22:32. | :22:35. | |
