There were 2 regiments of Royal Marine Commandos at D-Day. I believe that all U.S. Marines were in action in the Pacific at the time.
The Allies principally used landing ships and small landing craft called Higgins Boats. Once ashore, they used Sherman and British Crusader tanks.
The Germans were misled into believing the D-Day landing would occur at Calais due to a combination of deceptive tactics employed by the Allies, particularly through Operation Fortitude. This operation involved the use of fake radio traffic, inflatable tanks, and decoy installations that created the illusion of a large force assembling in Britain for an assault on Calais. Additionally, the Allies spread misinformation and used double agents to reinforce this belief, diverting German attention and resources from the actual landing site in Normandy. As a result, when D-Day arrived, the German forces were largely unprepared for the invasion at the true landing beaches.
Thompson submachine gun was developed for use in World War I.
The main types of ships used were the Landing Craft Infantry (LCI) and the Landing Craft Tank(LCT).

In 1776, just weeks after banding together, the Continental Marines successfully executed their first amphibious landing on a hostile shore. The British had stored large supplies of gunpowder at Fort Nassau in the Bahamas for later use against the thirteen colonies. FROM: MARINE CORE STATS.
