Planned by the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada, the fighting testifies to the diversity of the alliance against the Axis forces: soldiers of thirteen nationalities are fighting for the freedom of the European peoples. Their determination met that of the French Resistance, who, in exile or clandestineness, took part in combat by providing information about the enemy or by attacking its rear. At the same time, thousands of families are bombing and see the hope of victory mingling with mourning and ruins. At a time when the last witnesses and contemporaries disappear, the transmission of memory is an essential issue. The 1,147 kilometres of the Way of Liberty, whose pillars connect Normandy to the Ardennes, are recalled that D-Day is a turning point but does not mean that France is liberated. In the following months, the violence of both fighting and Nazi repression did not weaken in intensity. May the younger generations continue to inflict the memory of the Liberation in the landscapes they pass through and in the figures – unknown or famous – that inspire them.Specifications:Printing technique - HeliogravureFace value - 1.96Thematic - WarType of physical product - Beautiful stamp blocksPackaging - BlockNature of shipment - International letterType of bonding - GummedShipment destination - InternationalMaximum weight - 20gLegal Notice - Creation by Louis Genty from photos © BLANCHOT Philippe - for hemis.fr. / © Godard, Bigot, Desfoux for Andia / © Usis-Dite/Bridgeman Images et Archives/UIG/Bridgeman Images / © Usis-Dite/opale.photo. / © Keystone France/GAMMA RAPHO.
