2 days after entering Rome, Italy, on June 4th, 1944, the Allies, the Americans, British, and Canadians launched the D-Day landings of the D-Day invasion of Normandy, leading to the liberation of France. The D-Day landing was rough. This is because there was a large wall with over 3,000 artilleries Hitler ordered to be built. Since the fall of France in June, 1940, Adolf Hitler was building a large barricade wall, stretching from Norway to the Spanish Border. This was in order to stop the Allied invasion. The Allies couldn't win if they directly attacked, so they decided to invade Italy first, in hope of forcing that nation out of the war. In order to be able to overrun the Nazi German defenses, a massive naval bombardment had been called in. The American Marines went west of Juno Beach on Omaha Beach, while the British and Canadians pushed south of Juno Beach. The Americans were lucky, because most of the British and Canadians were killed by most German tanks taking them by surprise.
