Yes, there is in fact a battle just like D-day. I assume you are refering to the D-day that took place at Normandy, but there was another exactly alike that took place at Iwo-Jima. Iwo Jima was an isolated island that was controlled by Japan. Everything was basically the same, althought I think the battle of Normandy took place before the battle of Iwo Jima. Although Normandy was a bigger, bloodier battle and is more known to people when you refer to D-day,and Iwo Jima was just as important to yet another win for the Allies during WW2. If you want to learn more about Iwo Jima, read the book "Flags of our fathers". It is pretty interesting and engaging.
