This Day in History:

on this day in 1944, after four years of Nazi occupation, the city of Paris was liberated by Allied forces. During the occupation, France experienced complications related to having to house the 300,000 members of the occupying German army. Food and resources were sparse and citizens were forced to work against their will for the German war effort.
