"The Importance of Remembering our Vital WW II History"

The Richfield Historical Society’s final TakeMeBack series talk of 2026 will be "The Importance of Remembering our Vital WW II History" and will take place on Sunday, November 15, from 2:00-3:00 p.m., at Richfield Fellowship Hall (3903 Broadview Road).

Dr. Gary C. Domanick, a WW II European campaign historian, will detail the largest amphibious attack in U.S. history -- the D-Day invasion (also known as “Operation Overlord”) which took place on June 6, 1944. His presentation will take attendees from England to Normandy Beach, on the north coast of France, where the U.S. and its allies stormed the five beachheads. After arriving in France, the allied forces traversed across the country to Belgium -- where they fought the "Battle of the Bulge" – then finally crossed the Rhine River and travelled to Berlin to liberate Europe, and ultimately the world, from Nazi Germany.
