My name is Marc Laurenceau, I was born in 1987 in France. Since 1990, I visit these historical places such as the Normandy beaches and drop zones.

This website gave me the opportunity to participate in many projects related to the Battle of Normandy.

Similarly, in May 2004, I participated in the creation of the book "D-Day letters" by Jean-Pierre GUÉNO, Publishing Director of Radio France. This book is composed of letters written by several soldiers during the operation Overlord and the Normandy campaign.

Invited to a radio broadcast on June 5, 2004 in Sainte-Mere-Eglise to present the genesis of my website during the commemorations of the 60th anniversary of the D-Day, I was also invited by the French Defense secretary in the international ceremony at Arromanches on June 6, 2004.

In February 2005, I published a new version of my website to meet the expectations of many users, which contains, inter alia, a new design (done in collaboration with Axel Ronsin): more than 1,000 pages, new topics... Today, the DDay-Overlord.com website has become in France a reference in the matter.

I wanted to translate this forum into English for a long time. I published the english version in late January 2009, the year of the 65th anniversary of D-Day. Thus, it can tell the history of the Normandy landings and the Battle of Normandy to the entire world, so that everyone can remember the sacrifices done for our freedom.
