D-Day During World War II

D-Day D-Day was among the bloodiest days of WWII. D-Day was the start of WWII and the turning point of it, affecting the war more as it went on. With the Nazi’s already conquering most or all of Europe, they thought they were going to reign over all the world. As they started to take Jews away, America stepped in with their allies, Britain, Canada, France and many more. (“D-Day”)All the Armies Commanders and Captains met and planned the bloodiest day for two years. The Allied Forces had to do what was right. This was the start of WWII. There was a build up to D-Day by Operation Bolero. (“D-Day: The Invasion”) Dwight D. Eisenhower called D-Day a crusade that “We will accept nothing less than full victory.” (“D-Day” Army) The planning involved significant staging operations of thousands of troops. (“D-Day: The Invasion”) Within this two years of planning, they trained the soldiers, planned where to land, and got the supplies they needed to make this large-scale operation work . (“D-Day Overview.”,”Research Starters.”) To be honest, D-Day was a severely guarded secret for a long while, not being told to anyone outside of the government. (“Research Starters.”) Within planning D-Day, they planned it to be called Operation

(“D-Day: The Invasion”) When Hitler found out it was a trick he didn’t call reinforcements and he didn’t move the troops that were already at the fake one because there was already 150,000 Nazis at the real attack spot. (“D-Day” History) He already had five infantry divisions by his side already. (“D-Day”
