That's a very broad question, but generally, most of the American troops headed east and south in an effort to lock in Cherbourg as a usable port and to prevent the various German forces from re-inforcing this move. Most of the British and Canadian forces headed north east to relieve the low countries, Belgium and Holland and to harrass the large German tank formations in that area.
Once the Allies held the original beaches it was still very necessary to gain major ports to receive the thousand of tons of supplies, fuel and ammunition they needed.

Who are World War 2 soldiers buried in Normandy?
The names for most are on the crosses/stars. I chose to remember Millard Proffit from Texas. Wont ever know how many sons and daughters he might have had. Maybe one of them would have cured cancer??? Anyway, I'll remember the name for the rest of my life. It's different, kind of old-fashioned. Maybe a farm boy. If you go there, it will knock you down a bit.
