Yes During the Second World War there was fighting in the 'western front' as well as other areas. The "Western Front" is generally considered to be the area west of Germany, to include France, Luxemburg, Holland, Belgium, and Great Britain. The Germans attacked along the western front in May 1940, and by July 1940 were in control of the west with the exception of Great Britain. From July 1940 until June 1944 the war in the west was primarily an air war with some commando or other raids on the coast. The airborne drops for the Normandy invasion and amphibious landings on June 6, 1944 mark the start of the new ground war on the western front. That allies on the western front fought their way deep into Germany (where they met the Rurssians coming from the east), until Germany was defeated in May 1945.
