The tide of World War II shifted dramatically with the Allied invasion of Normandy on June 6, 1944, known as D-Day. This unprecedented amphibious operation marked a turning point as Allied forces advanced through France.
Careful planning, strict secrecy, and the courage of countless soldiers ensured its success despite significant challenges and severe weather. Following this victory, Allied campaigns such as Operation Market Garden and the Battle of the Bulge tested their determination, ultimately leading to the fall of Berlin and the end of the conflict in Europe on May 8, 1945.
This historic day ushered in a new era of peace and reconstruction.
