The Storm of 19-20 June, 1944
The Storm of 19-20 June, 1944
The weather was always an unknown factor. Storms in the English Channel have always been violent, with the wind whipping the waves in the confined area between Normandy and England. The great storm of June 19-20 succeeded in doing what the Germans had not been able to do - destroy the great "mulberry" artificial harbors.
