During World War II, the 'D-Day' event took place on June 6, 1944. On this day, Allied troops made an amphibious landing on the northern coast of France, in the region of Normandy. Seizing a beach-head in the face of sometimes fierce opposition from German defenders, the Allied troops ensured that 'D-Day' was a success, although much bitter fighting lay ahead before the Allies would succeed in advancing towards Germany and ending the war.
