Product Description: The D-Day Ruler is plastic and measures 30cm long. It shows measurements in both inches and centimetres. On the inches scale it includes units of 1/16 of an inch and on the centimetre side units of 1 millimetre.

The front of the ruler shows a D-Day battle scene of British landing craft and troops storming a beach with cover provided by a Spitfire, whilst German troops fire at them from the cliffs above.

The reverse of the ruler shows a map of the beaches attacked during D-Day together with a map key. There is also a brief history of Operation Overlord, D-Day.

Information: On June 6, 1944, more than 156,000 Allied troops landed along a 50-mile stretch of heavily fortified French coastline in what was to be the largest seaborne invasion in history. The naval, air and land assault involved around 5,000 ships and landing craft, 50,000 vehicles, 11,000 aircraft and 13,000 paratroopers. By the end of the day the allies had established a foothold along the coast and could begin their advance into France.
