Initially there were 5 beaches and each beach was assigned a division to secure it. After the beaches were secured three Allied Armies were brought into France to begin the drive to Berlin. Additionaly 3 allied airborne divisions kept reinforcements away from the beachheads. Each division was assigned a destroyer to provide close in support directly on the beach. Allied Air Bombing was ineffectual due to the bombadiers releasing their bombs late, scared of committing friendly fire.
