Front for Victory was created in 2003.
A plan for the Western allies to open the second front in France in 1942.
The invasion of France, particularly the D-Day landings on June 6, 1944, was crucial for the Allies because it marked the beginning of a significant offensive to liberate Western Europe from Nazi occupation. By establishing a foothold in France, the Allies aimed to open a new front against Germany, diverting German resources and attention from the Eastern Front. This operation was pivotal in weakening German forces and ultimately contributed to the Allied victory in Europe. Additionally, the liberation of France helped restore democratic governments and set the stage for post-war reconstruction.
In the second World War the decisive turning point on the western front was D-Day. This was when the Allies invaded Nazi occupied France.

Josef Stalin, leader of the Soviet Union
Stalin wanted the Allies to open a second front in Europe to releive pressure from his advancing army. If a second front was opened Hitler would have to split his forces and deal with two prongs that were advancing on Berlin and the Rhine, or the production heart of Germany. If either of these were taken Hitler would lose the war. The second front was made to put more pressure on Hitler and end the war quicker.
It allowed the Second Reich (Germany) to transfer all of the forces it had allocated to the Eastern Front to the Western Front, thus making fighting more intense on the Western Front.
Front for Victory was created in 2003.
The victory over the Germans at the battle for Stalingrad on the Eastern Front meant that the Germans were effectively fighting a two-front war . This meant that the Germans were forced to divide the bulk of their resources to fight both the Russians on the Eastern Front as well as the Allies on the Western Front . The Allies knew that complete victory over the Germans was then inevitable for had the Germans defeated the Russians then the Germans would then be able to commit their full resources to thwart any effort on the part of the Allies to invade and defeat the Germans who no longer had two fronts to fight on in the war . The Russian victory at Stalingrad meant that the Russians could indeed defeat German efforts and the Allies were encouraged by this who were then committed to the eventual defeat of Germany now having confidence that their Russian allies were capable of turning the tide of war against the Germans .
The Russians wanted the Allies to open a second front where German forces would be drawn off and the diversion of German military assets to another front other than the Eastern Front would help the Russian march to Berlin .
