D-Day was important militarily and psychologically as it was seen as the real turning point of the war. Allied Armies back on the occupied soil of France meant a huge lift in morale -especially to the French ! Also, as very few wars can progress without soldiers being on the ground, this sudden invasion of huge numbers of Allied troops, with effective armour and artillery was devastating to the German occupation forces.

∙ 15y agothe allied invasion of Europe on 6 June 1944 was a pivotal moment in WWII because it gave the Allies a foothold in continental Europe, it took some pressure off of the Russians on the eastern front, drew German troops from Italy, and showed the Germans that even their impregnable Atlantic Wall was not invincible, and put doubt into the minds of the German's Id also like to point out that nearly every military wall in history has been breached... Hadrians wall (Rome) Maginot line (French WWII) Sighişoara (Vlad III Dracula's Birth place) Constantinople/ Byzantium Jerusalem Berlin Wall Babylon ...etc
