The important French town and port taken by U.S. troops in June 1944 was Cherbourg. Captured during the Normandy campaign shortly after D-Day, Cherbourg was crucial for the Allies as it provided a deep-water port necessary for the logistics and supply of troops in Europe. The successful seizure of Cherbourg significantly enhanced the Allied ability to sustain their operations following the invasion.
