As one of the most important moments in the history of World War II, D-Day stands as a turning point in the European theater and one of the most recognizable events of the war. The 743rd Tank Division was selected to be one of the three tank assault battalions that landed as part of the first wave during the June 6 landing. This spectacularly restored map depicts the D-Day landing and the following 48 days the battalion heroically fought through France. Printed on heavy matte stock with archival ink this museum quality reproduction is an ideal gift for any fan of military or World War II history and is sure to spark conversation given the distinctive quality of the original work.
