The answer you are looking for is the British 2nd Army in the heroic liberation of Caen. The operation was known as Operation Market Garden. That isn't true at all, even if it was operation market garden was a tactical failure that took place in holland, not a heroic liberation in France That being said, Operation Overlord, the invasion of Normandy is to this day the largest airborne invasion ever, and was a huge success, with all the chaos that occurred operational casualties were well below expected numbers.
