What was the importance of dday?
D-Day was designed to be the last push on germany. D Day was the first step in taking the war back to Hitlers Europe. At that time the Russians were pressing in the East and were taking most of the casualties in the war. Italy had been invaded by the Allies but a new front was required. Dday was the day on which (at that time) the greatest sea armada ever known was lauched against the Normandy coast. The invasion area was set into five beaches. Despite what Hollywood says it was not a solely US affair. The Americans had two of the areas, the British had two and the Canadians had one.

What happened with the D-Day-Normandy?
156,000 british, American and Canadian troops landed over five beaches: Omaha, Utah, gold, sword and juno. also three airborne divisions landed behind the beaches: the US 82nd and 101st and the british 6th airborne division. while this was happening, hundreds of allied fighter bombers eg p47 thunderbolt and p51 mustangs were inland from the beaches hitting strategic targets and isolating the normany area from German reinforcement. The allied soldiers, sailors and airmen who took part in this put their lives on the line to free western Europe and should always be remembered with greatest respect. The German general Erwin Rommel said D Day would be the "longest day" because if the Germans could not drive the allied assault back into the sea the allies would prevail in the long term. By the end of DDay all 5 beaches were secure and even at this early point it would have been difficult for the Germans to dislodge them. DDay was a major turning point in WW2, after this Hitler and his Nazi regime was doomed and the people of western Europe would again be able to live in freedom and peace.
