The Normandy Landings, famously known as D-Day, were the largest seaborne invasion in history, launched by the Allies on June 6, 1944, during the Second World War. This monumental operation began the liberation of France and Western Europe from Nazi Germany, marking a crucial turning point on the Western Front. It involved extensive planning, massive deception, and the coordinated efforts of air, sea, and land forces to establish a foothold on the beaches of Normandy.
