N'oublions Jamais Leur Histoire.
Never forget their story.
The D-Day Leadership Academy began as a promise to WWII Veterans to keep their stories alive - and has grown into an immersive, educational, history and leadership program that shares the lessons of D-Day with a new generation. We're fortunate to have had input from Veterans who were there on June 6, 1944 so we can use their experiences to help guide us.
About D-Day Leadership Academy
The D-Day Leadership Academy is a program of Denver PAL, a 501(c)(3) organization that has been serving young people since 1969. We provide lessons and experiences in character, ethics and leadership by sharing the stories of D-Day: the events, the sites and the people. Our curriculum culminates with a visit to Normandy, France where students interact with French families and see the sites themselves. It's a life-changing experience and one not soon forgotten.

From participants:
“Normandy serves as a symbol of both the cost and the fruition of peace, a place where stained glass gleams in reverence of paratroopers in churches that are scarred with bullet holes and bloodstains, a place where flowers grow in bomb craters strewn across the countryside, a place where children play on beaches that were once blanketed in warfare. And my life has been changed by being able to witness it. I am so crazy thankful for this experience.”
