No it didn't. The war in Europe would last almost another year before Germany surrendered unconditionally in May 1945. What D-Day do was to open up a 2nd front that the Russians had been pressuring for a long time. Up till June 6, 1944, the Soviet Union had borne the brunt of the fighting and had tied down most of the German army. It need the Western Allies to invade France so that the Germans would be force to transfer forces to the west. The success of D-Day ended any German illusion of total victory.

What was d-day and why does it play such a part in the allies fate?

D DAY was the day the allies went to recapture france the battle following Dieppe In World War 2 in comparisson to WW1 in a sense dieppe was like the battle of the sommes and dday was like the battle of vimy ridge. Dieppe was a failure and the lessons learned lead to the success of Dday. Dday played an important part in the allies fate because the allies recaptured france who had fell to russia only 6 weeks into war. this marked the last battle in europe in ww2.
