On June 6, 1944, under the command of General Dwight D. Eisenhower, Allied forces launched Operation Overlord, the largest amphibious invasion in history.
By dawn, thousands of paratroopers had already landed behind enemy lines, followed by waves of troops storming the beaches of Normandy under heavy German fire.
Despite fierce resistance, especially at Omaha Beach, the Allies secured a foothold in France, marking the beginning of the liberation of Western Europe during World War II.
