Expert's comment
This extensive conflict involved many of the world’s nations and cost tens of millions of lives. A tour can provide interpretation of events and the tactics employed in events such as Operation Dynamo at Dunkirk and study Hitler’s Atlantic Wall at the French-Belgian Border. This is also a key area for V weapon sites.
