D-Day was the name for the first day of the Allied invasion of Europe to conquer the Nazi occupied countries. After almost 2 years of planning almost 175,000 Allied soldiers landed in Normandy on 6 June 1944. Most of the troops landed on heavily defended beaches but almost 30,000 were on parachutes or massive gliders. On that first day they brought over 800 tanks and 1,900 artillery pieces. Each subsequent day brought in about 50,000 more troops for over a month.
This was the world's largest ever combined seaborne and airborne landing. It took almost11,000 ships and boats and over 14,000 Allied air missions on that one day. Nothing remotely like it has ever happened before or since.
