Best Answer

The Germans vs. the Allies.

The Allied countries that took on the invasion were America (Utah and Omaha beaches), Britain (Sword and Gold beaches) and Canada (Juno Beach).

Although it is most commonly reported Omaha beach invaders faced the heaviest defence, the Canadian Juno beach actually had heavier defence and higher casulties. Juno Beach was reported to have had nearly none of the defenses wiped out by the coastal bombardment.

All 5 beaches were guarded by German Nazi soldiers.

D DAY was the day the allies went to recapture france the battle following Dieppe In World War 2 in comparisson to WW1 in a sense dieppe was like the battle of the sommes and dday was like the battle of vimy ridge. Dieppe was a failure and the lessons learned lead to the success of Dday. Dday played an important part in the allies fate because the allies recaptured france who had fell to russia only 6 weeks into war. this marked the last battle in europe in ww2.
