If you are asking about the famous D-Day which is also known as the 'Normandy Landings' by the Allies at Normandy, France on June 6, 1944... then you may be confused.

The US & British naval units involved in that most famous invasion are from the Atlantic Fleets, not the Pacific Fleets.

Historically all Allied invasions or major operations in all Theaters (North Africa, Mediterranean, Europe, Pacific, etc.) all used the term "D-Day" in planning & executing the operation to refer to the date that the invasion starts. They also used "H-Hour", etc.

If you are referring to something that happened in the Pacific Ocean during the war then you need to be more specific.
