On the anniversary of D-Day, we reflect on the courage of the Allied forces who stormed the beaches of Normandy. Their actions turned the tide of World War II and secured freedom for generations.
DIA's second director, then-Lt. Col. Donald Bennett, was among those who landed in the second wave at Omaha Beach. Recalling the chaos and plans gone awry, he reflected, "I had to act, to do something, anything, and everything within me screamed that I had to do it quickly." For his extraordinary heroism in organizing the beachhead and advancing against the enemy, he was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross, the U.S. Army’s second-highest award for valor.
That spirit of decisive action and leadership continues to guide our mission today.
