== == D-Day, the Sixth of June 1944, was the beginning of the end for Nazi dominated Germany, whether Hitler realized it or not (and in fact at the time he did not). There was still almost a year of hard fighting ahead for the Allies, but D-Day opened the second front that forced Hitler to fight on two fronts, east and west, and ultimately the Germans couldn't keep it up. By April of 1945 Nazi Germany had been squeezed into a little hourglass shape between the Red Army advancing from the east and the Western Allies advancing from the west. Hitler committed suicide in his bunker in Berlin on April 30, 1945, and eight days later the Germans unconditionally surrendered. After almost six years of the worst fighting the world had ever known, the war in Europe was over .
Churchill did not say this about D-Day (he said it in 1942), but the quote seems to apply anyway: " ... this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning."
