SEPTEMBER 15
** 1935: The Nuremburg Laws deprived German Jews of their citizenship and made the swastika the official symbol of Nazi Germany.
** 1940: During the Battle of Britain the tide turned as the Luftwaffe sustained heavy losses inflicted by the Royal Air Force.
SEPTEMBER 17
** 1939: The Soviet Union invaded Poland, more than two weeks after Germany launched its assault on that country.
** 1944: Allied paratroopers launched Operation Market Garden, landing behind German lines in the Netherlands.
The Allies, however, encountered fierce German resistance.
