What was D-Day and what happened on the day?

D - day signified a big change in WW2. D Day - the day that sealed the fate of Hitler's occupation of Europe in World War 2. The day that eventually saw 175,000 American, British, French, Polish, Norwegian, Dutch and Canadian troops land on the fields and beaches of Normandy, France. D Day was the term used by the Allied Forces for the landings and it was on6th June 1944 when, at 6.30am, troops came ashore to establish a foothold in France from which they could fight the German forces to move further inland. The Normandy landings (Operation Neptune) were part of the larger Operation Overlord. The D Day landings came in two parts, namely the airborne assault of 24,000 troops after midnight, and the seaborne, amphibious landings of the armoured and infantry divisions. The Normandy landings occured on five areas of the coast which were known as Gold, Juno, Sword, Omaha and Utah which stretched along a 50 miles (80 kms) of the French coast. The Allied decoy operations (Operations Glimmer and Taxable) successfully led the German forces to believe that the main invasion would take place further up the coast near Calais.
