JUNE 3, 2014 -- NBC News will honor the 70th anniversary of D-Day with special coverage across all platforms beginning Thursday, June 5, through Sunday, June 8. As veterans and world leaders gather in Normandy, France to commemorate the historic day, "NBC Nightly News" anchor and managing editor Brian Williams will lead the network's on-the-ground reporting, along with NBC News special correspondent Tom Brokaw and NBC News chief foreign affairs correspondent Andrea Mitchell, as well as NBC News political director and chief White House correspondent Chuck Todd and NBC News national correspondent Peter Alexander, who will be traveling with President Obama.

On Thursday and Friday, Williams will anchor special editions of "NBC Nightly News" from the site of the American cemetery overlooking Omaha Beach.
