The sacrifices of over nine thousand American soldiers on the Omaha beach in Normandy earned the beach a new name - Democracy's Beach. Rightfully, a grateful America and France honour their memories even today. In the same war, over 87000 Indian troops made the supreme sacrifice in Italy, West Asia and Far East. Ironically, these gallant men are neither remembered as heroes in their own soil nor celebrated elsewhere. Apart from their sacrifices, India as a Colony of the British Empire paid nearly two billion USD in war time expenses to Britain.

This episode is in memory of those great sons of India.
