The Normandy Landings (D-Day)

The Normandy Landings, often called D-Day, was the largest seaborne invasion in history, launched on June 6, 1944. It marked the beginning of the liberation of German-occupied Western Europe during World War II, with Allied forces landing on the beaches of Normandy, France. This monumental operation established a crucial second front against Nazi Germany and was a pivotal turning point in the war.
