D-Day 81 Years Later

Remembering D-Day: Its Impact on World War II and the Politics of the Allied Powers

June 6, 1944, is a date etched in history as D-Day, the day when Allied forces launched the largest amphibious invasion ever seen. Over 156,000 troops from the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and other Allied nations stormed the beaches of Normandy, France. This pivotal operation, known as Operation Overlord, was crucial in turning the tide of World War II and had significant political ramifications for the Allied powers in the war’s final 18 months
