D-day was actually called Operation Overlord. Not Overload. It was not known by the regular army until the actual invasion. Only the top generals knew it as Overlord.It was under the command of General Montegomery until Supreme Commander Eisenhower took over.If it will help the questioner to remember, Operation Barbarossa (1941) was the German invasion of the Soviet Union. Operation Torch (1942) was the Allied invasion of French North Africa. Operation Husky (1943) was the Allied invasion of Sicily. Operation Overlord (1944) was the Allied invasion of Normandy in German-held France.

Not Overload. It was Operation Overlord. All large military operations are given code names, and all of them have a D-Day, but the Normandy invasion was the most famous and over the years June 6, 1944 has come to be known as D-Day. The invasion of French North Africa was Operation Torch, and the invasion of Sicily was Operation Husky, etc., and they had a D-Day too.
Operation Crossroads Africa was created in 1957.
Operation Overlord was the code name for the Battle of Normandy in World War 2, in which the Allied invasion of France took place. General Dwight Eisenhower (United States) and British General Bernard Montgomery planned the invasion under this name, which later was known as D-Day.
