Dwight David Eisenhower served as Supreme Commander of the Allied Expeditionary Force from 1944 to 1945 and as President of the United States from 1953 to 1961. In his Order of the Day of June 6, 1944, he told the soldiers, sailors, and airmen of the Allied Expeditionary Force that they were about to embark upon the great crusade toward which they had striven for many months, that the eyes of the world were upon them, and that the hopes and prayers of liberty-loving people everywhere marched with them.
