General Dwight D. Eisenhower wanted a full moon for the Normandy invasion because the increased natural light would enhance visibility for the landing forces during the nighttime operation. A full moon would help troops navigate the treacherous waters of the English Channel and conduct landings more effectively. Additionally, better visibility would assist in coordinating air support and ensuring the safety of landing crafts during the critical early hours of the assault.
