**It was a key turning point and marked the beginning of the end of Hitler's reign**
It was the start of the Liberation of France in WW2. Steadily the Russians were rolling the Eastern Front back towards Berlin, but the landings of principally the US, British & Canadian forces, in great numbers, on the Normandy Beaches, signalled the nearing of the end of the Third Reich & Nazi domination in WW2. It would be 11 months before the Germans finally surrendered. It remains the largest amphibious operation in warfare, a mighty feat of arms. It was important that the Allies got it right in terms of timing & effect ecause many lives would have been lost had they not fulfilled its objectives as they did. I suppose it was significant in that it represented to all that the Nazis would be overthrown, that Hitler would be removed from power.
