Best Answer

Gold Beach and Sword Beach

There were more than 2 during WW2, if you include North Africa, Italy, and the islands in the Pacific. This Q is posted under "France in WW2" so the appropriate answer would be (A) Normandy Beach and (B) Southern France.

(A) The landing in Northern France in Normandy was called Operation OVERLORD and consisted of 5 separate landing sites or beaches: Gold, Juno, Sword, Omaha, Utah.

(B) Operation ANVIL (later Operation DRAGOON) landed Allied forces at St. Tropez area some 30 miles east of Toulon. The force consisted of the US VI Corps.
