Dwight Eisenhower was the allied commander at D-day.
5-star general/ supreme allied commander Dwight D. Eisenhower commanded all allied forces not only American in Europe from d-day to VE day.
D-Day was at Normandy France, and attacked the occupying German forces. Germany was still attempting to take over Europe, and after France had surrendered, Germany set up bunkers along the coast of France to repel the invading Allied military forces. After the Allied forces successfully gained control of the Normandy beaches, they were able to deliver a military force that eventually defeated the NAZI's.

D-Day and the following months landed huge Allied forces with armour and artillery support. This forced the German armies back into Germany.
Huh? France was invaded by the Allied Forces (mainly the Americans and the Brits). It took time for the Allied Forces to get France completely freed of the German Nazi presence. Germany had taken over France back in 1940 and the allies took it back in 1944. The liberation did not occur on D-Day. It was only the first day the Allied Forces had reached Normandy and started fighting the Nazi Germans. See the related link below for the fabulous story of the liberation in August 1944.
