| Obverse lettering | 1944 DU D-DAY AU VE-DAY - 80ème ANNIVERSAIRE 1945 1/4 EURO RF |
| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a soldier identified as a private of the 6th Airborne Division, who landed in Normandy during the night of June 6, 1944, rendered in a detailed illustrative style evoking wartime documentary art. The figure is shown in full combat dress, commemorating the division's extraordinary campaign that took it from the beaches of Normandy through the Battle of the Bulge, across the Rhine in Operation Varsity, to a junction with Soviet forces near Wismar, and ultimately to the Far East for operations against Japanese forces in Malaya and Singapore. The word 'SINGAPOUR' appears prominently in the upper legend, referencing the final theater of the division's wartime service, while the year '2025' is inscribed in the lower field. The composition underscores the global scope of the liberation struggle, from Western Europe to Southeast Asia, concluding with the Japanese surrender on September 2, 1945. |
