On D-Day, June 6, 1944, approximately 10,000 Allied troops were killed, wounded, or missing on the first day of the invasion. This figure includes soldiers from the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and other Allied nations. The exact number of deaths varies in different reports, but estimates suggest around 4,000 to 5,000 Allied troops died that day. The invasion marked a pivotal moment in World War II, leading to the liberation of Western Europe from Nazi control.
