During World War II, the Allied victory at Normandy occurred in two distinct stages but, in both, was achieved through identical methods. In the first stage, the first several days of the invasion (in June of 1944), a beach-head was firmly established by the invaders through an overwhelming combined-arms attack: naval, air, special forces, and ground troops all worked together to gain a foothold on German-held territory. Weeks later (in late July and August of 1944), the same combined-arms approach enabled the Allies to break out of their beach-head area and to begin liberating, at breathtaking speed, France and other areas of Europe. This second stage, it should be noted, was accomplished in part through the exhausted and much-reduced state of the German defenders on the ground in Normandy.
