Reflect D-day seems to arrive just at the moment the residents of the Annex need hope the most. Anne clings to the hope that she can return to a normal life.Anne hears a broadcast about the Allied forces landing in Norway, France, D-day was an important event in history and to the world for many reasons. Some of them were that we stopped Adolf Hitler and his army from pushing past Europe. It also helped the jews because they were being persecuted and we gave them hope. Anne knew that the Allied landings would not immediately bring liberation and freedom. She wrote realistically about the fears, hardships, and sufferings still to come, but now hoped the end was in sight. Tragically, Anne did not experience the liberation for
“D-Day”, happened June 6, 1944. More than 160,000 troops fought that day and around 13,000 air crafts and 5,000 ships were there. Around 9,000 allied soldiers died that day.
During World War II, the Nazis wreaked havoc across the European countries, particularly France. The Battle of Normandy was the major battle that resulted in the liberation of the French from Nazi control. This engagement lasted from June 1944 to August 1944. The battle was codenamed Operation Overlord, or more commonly known as D-Day which began on June 6th, 1944. A few months before D-Day was carried out, General Dwight Eisenhower was appointed to command the D-Day landings. His plan before hand was to lead a deception operation whose purpose was to make the enemy think that the main invasion point was Pas-de-Calais, the narrowest point between the United Kingdom and France, making it look like a good place for invasion considering they could not be flanked by the Germans. Another operation was to plant fake equipment in Norway to make the Nazis think the Allies were invading through Norway and into France. While we were doing this, Adolf Hitler was aware that an invasion was imminent. He then put Erwin Rommel in charge of putting defenses down along all possible locations for invasion. All along the beaches were fortifications that consisted of bunkers equipped with MG-42’s, which were very advanced machine-guns with a fire rate way beyond its time. Plus, they put landmines down to stop any tanks rolling up onto the beaches, and barriers in the water to stop our boats getting to shore. This meant that the allied
Several months more pass, and soon Anne begins to have terrible nightmares. She wakes Mr. Dussel very often. She dreams that the Nazis come to take them. In the works of the nightmares, she hurts her mother’s feelings by rejecting her comfort. Anne will only talk to her father about it. It truly

December 7th, 1941. The day 2,403 lives were lost, including sixty eight civilians* would be marked forever in United States’ history. Today Americans remember this day as this as day Japan’s Navy Air Service attacked America’s Navy. Not only was society affected during this tragic day but because of the amount of ships and sailors lost, America was felt need to formally join World War II (WWII). This eventually leads to the world being forever altered.
How does this event present a connection with how the modern world works today. what impact did it leave on everything.
D-day, it was the turning point in the war. It is when the allies took the beach of Normandy and was the entrance into France. It was one of the biggest and most bloody battle in American history.
What do you think of when you hear D-Day? Most people would think of Omaha beach. The slaughter of men pouring onto the beach. But most people don’t think about the fact is without the paratroopers, who were dropped a few hours before. Six paratrooper regiments. Each regiment consisted of 13,000 men, 800 planes, and a British airfield. Without these paratroopers, D-Day wouldn’t have succeeded.
My first art portfolio, my favorite keychain, my broken bike…1.2.3. No one ever speaks to you about your own ending. How you die is left up to your own imagination. To you, your death can maybe either be due to a glorious, heroic act in which you met a righteous end or a pathetic closing to what you may believe to be a pretty uneventful existence. No one speaks about endings in general, though. Endings only tend to make us feel anything but content. Yet we dream on, foolishly writing silly ends to our lives, forgetting that the ends we create may be plausible one day. College, family, career…1.2.3. My breaths get weary, my heart slows from boisterous thuds to faint, lethargic thumps. Bright rays gleam above, showering me in what is meant to be warmth, but all I feel is cold. My freezing limbs waft slowly within the water, my feet dangling below, my hair flowing behind. My mother’s laughter, my father’s tears of joy, my friends’ bright smiles…1.2.3. I never dreamt my foolish imagination would collide with the inevitable so soon. My days of compiling were over, my good days, my sad days, my sweet, sweet mundane days, would soon come to an end…Air, air, air, air,
Throughout the 20th century many people influenced the world for better or worse. However one man completely changed history for even those alive today. This man was Adolf Hitler. He was a anti-semitic, anti-Marxist dictator that dominated Europe into believing that Jews were the root of all evil. Adolf Hitler is one of the most influential figures of the 20th century because his reign and military leadership of Germany lead to World War II, he killed millions of Jews trying to perfect humanity through the Holocaust and his efforts of world domination influenced history forever.

When I turned 11-years-old my whole childhood began to change my life went from being perfect to everything but perfect. One day I came home to hear the news my father, my best friend; my hero was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer. Not knowing the struggle my family was about to take on I just began to cry. I had a million things running through my head what’s going to happen? Will everything be okay? Why him? What is going to happen? With all these things rushing through my head all I could do was cry not knowing this was least worse to come.
