The Nazis thought the Allied Forces would invade at the Calais point of France. They were only partially prepared for them to land in Normandy and they certainly did not expect the force to be so large and impressive. Rommel, their commander was absent and this created chaos amongst the German soldiers. Within months the Allied Forces had been victorious in France and other places. The Generals realized the war was lost. Hitler however lived in denial.

After almost 2 years of planning Allied troops composed mostly of British, American and Canadian soldiers mounted the worlds largest ever combined operation. This involved over 175,000 soldiers landing on the coast of Normandy by ship, parachute and glider. These men were armed with tanks and artillery and made a significant beach head on the first day. Landings kept happening after this first day and by the end of June the Allied forces had almost a million men ashore in France pushing the ill-prepared German armies back.

The Normandy Invasion of the Allied Forces to arrive in Normandy, France. It was called Operation Overlord. It consisted of many nation's forces. There were over 6000 ships and boats. There were thousands of planes and millions of people who landed by sea or by air (parachuted or air glided) on the shores and coast line of Normandy. They were able to defeat the Germans in that area and in less than a year they defeated the Nazis completely.

According to the USS Arizona historical site (link below) there are currently 19 known survivors (18 Navy, 1 Marine) still alive as of April 26, 2011. There are approximately a dozen others who are unaccounted for that may or may not still be alive.

The Allies tricked Hitler by having a French merchant ship drop a dead body with plans of a fake invasion to take place far west of Normandy and on high tide the body was dropped by the Normandy coast and floated to shore and was found by the Germans and delivered to Hitler and he moved a large group of his men to that point and left the rest at Normandy witch was still a lot of Germans and payed little attention to Normandy.

Hitler was taken by surprise and could not move his troops to Normandy and waited still thinking that there was an immanent invasion witch would never come. The Allies lost many men and the number would have been worse if the deception trick did not work. We should always be thankful that there were and still are people like that so willing to fight for what they believe in and to fight for other countries and for the United States of America these men were and will always be Heros.

Well they did assault Juno beach and manage to penetrate further into France than any other landing force. Also Juno beach was the second most heavily defended beach. Candian minesweepers also cleared mines in the waters near the beach before the landing to help landers reach the beach and there were Canadian Paratroopers Dropped into France I'm pretty sure to help liberate objectives before the main forces arrived.

I hope this help cuz I'm also doing something on this

There were no Canadian paratroopers in Europe with the Americans Idiot

The attack on Normandy Beach and all the other beaches affected the outcome, because Normandy was another way to get in to Europe and the allies needed another way in. After D-Day Germany had to take troops from the Eastern and send them to the West and although the soviets probably would have won it would have lasted a lot longer 3-5 years even.

Screaming Eagles

D-Day gave the allies a way to use their over whelming number of men and mateial against the Germans. It also took the pressure off the Americans and the British from Stalin who was pressing for an allied breakthrough in the west so the Germans had to fight on two fronts and therefor ending the war just a little bit quicker. So, D-Day forced Hitler to move more troops to the western front from the eastern front and did effictivly end the war earlier than if the allies would had to push through Italy instead of catching the German homeland in two massive sized pincers

Misdirection. Make the Axis powers believe that the attack is comming further north and on a different day. The Allies landed at Normandy. The Germans expected the invasion to occur at Pa-de-Calias, which is further East (or East-North-East). == The Allies landed at 5 beaches. They were to push inland and capture the towns and bridges that would prevent German re-inforcements from arriving. The Allied paratroopers went in early to assist in taking some of these key objectives early and hold for the infantry to arrive. After the Allies had secured the beaches and brought in re-inforcements, the Americans would move West to drive the Germans out of the pennisular and the British and Canadian would move east to take some of the major cities.

The best was a group of tank based engineering vehicles called Hobart's Funnies. It include a variety of mine clearance vehicles, swimming tanks called DD's for the Duplex Drive it featured and bridgelayers. Another notable war machine was the. artificial harbor system called the Mulberry which was a series of concrete strutures built in England and towed across the Channel

Now and then, construction work unearths bones and skeletons from soldiers. This happens fairly often," said Fritz Kirchmeier, a spokesman for the German organization that tends the 80,000 graves for German soldiers in Normandy. Casualty estimates for Allied forces vary, but range from 2,500 to more than 5,000 dead on D-Day. Adding to the confusion is that D-Day books and histories often count wounded, missing and troops taken prisoner. On its Web site, the D-Day Museum in Portsmouth, England, says an estimated 2,500 Allied troops died. The U.S. Army Center of Military Historyin Washington, D.C., numbers 6,036 American casualties, including wounded and missing. The Heritage Foundation in Washington estimates 4,900 dead. "It's very difficult to get accurate figures. People get buried. Bodies disintegrate. Evidence of the deaths disappeared. People drowned," said John Keegan, author of "Six Armies in Normandy: From D-Day to the Liberation of Paris." He estimates 2,500 Americans and 3,000 other Allied troops died on D-Day. More than 19,000 civilians in Normandy also died in Allied bombing before and after D-Day to soften up German defenses. And Allied air forces lost nearly 12,000 men in April and May 1944 in operations ahead of the invasion, the D-Day Museum says. Even as the ranks of veterans who survived the assault and the push into Germany thin with time, work on tallying the dead continues. Carol Tuckwiller, director of research at the National D-Day Memorial Foundation in Bedford, Va., has spent four years combing through government, military and cemetery records for names of Allied dead on D-Day. She hopes to have a figure by next year. "We feel like we're probably going to end up with a total of about 4,500 fatalities for both the Americans and Allied countries. Right now, we have about 4,200 names confirmed," she said. "Of course we realize we may never be 100 percent complete."

Shot by firing squad after trying to assassinate Hitler.

He was immediately shot after his arrest, without a trial.

The allies wanted the Germans to believe the invasion was to take place across the shortest channel crossing to Calais, France.
