abstract
  • The Battle of Normandy was fought in 1944 between Nazi Germany in Western Europe and the invading Allied forces as part of the larger conflict of World War II. Over sixty years later, the Normandy invasion, codenamed Operation Overlord, still remains the largest seaborne invasion in history, involving almost three million troops crossing the English Channel from England to Normandy in then German-occupied France. The primary Allied formations that saw combat in Normandy came from the United States of America, United Kingdom and Canada. Other nations also provided sizable national contingents after the assault phase, including Belgium, Czechoslovakia, France, Greece, the Netherlands, Norway, and Poland. The Normandy invasion began with overnight parachute and glider landings, massive air attacks and naval bombardments, and an early morning amphibious assault on June 6, "D-Day". The battle for Normandy continued for more than two months, with campaigns to establish, expand, and eventually break out of the Allied beachheads, and concluded with the liberation of Paris and the fall of the Falaise Pocket in late August 1944.

The main Allied forces came from landing craft out at sea but some soldiers chose to swim the Channel, as a warm-up, as well. The Normandy invasion began with the allied attack: an overnight airborne assualt, a bombardment of every French restaurant within range of allied bombers, and an early morning amphibious assault on June 6, "D-day". The British invasion began with a few rounds of leaflets warning the locals (and subsequently the Germans) that they were going to invade and beaching the landing craft so they could get out and have an English Breakfast on the beach. The battle for Normandy continued for more than forty days and forty nights, with campaigns to establish, expand, and eventually break out of the Allied beachheads, as well as a sneaky British invasion of France. It concluded with the liberation of Paris, the forest moon Endor and the greater Star Wars Galaxy, and the eventual destruction of the Hitler's Grosse Death Starein.
