A coastal farming region on the north-central edge of France, Normandy was important during World War II for the United States in that it served as the landing-point for the 1944 invasion by Allied troops of occupied Europe. Spearheaded by airborne and air force attacks, American soldiers (along with British and Canadians) landed on June 6th, secured a beach-head, and then eventually moved on to liberate all of Europe from the Normandy region.
