On this day...
The Normandy landings were the landing operations and associated airborne operations on June 6th 1944 of the Allied invasion of Normandy in Operation Overlord during World War II.
Codenamed Operation Neptune and often referred to as ‘D-Day’, it was the largest seaborne invasion in history. The operation began the liberation of France (and later, Western Europe) and laid the foundations of the Allied victory on the Western Front.
