Paul Zigo, director of the World War II Era Studies Institute, will review five critical turning point battles and their outcomes.
A turning point is a point in a war or campaign where one combatant experiences a reversal of fortune. The combatant loses the initiative, suffers loss of freedom in a theater of war and the opponent assumes the offensive. In WWII there were five key turning point battles, each of which enabled the Allies to mount offensive operations to achieve strategic objectives and ultimately attain victory. This presentation by historian Paul Zigo, will relate the five critical battles and their outcomes.
