====D-Day was a secret date on which a military operation during World War II was to begin. Only the Allies knew what the date was. This day was the secret date. It is also known as the Normandy Landings. The Allies were working together. Germany had invaded two bridges that the Allies wanted in Normandy, France. About 24,000 troops total, British, America, Canada, and Free French Airborne troops landed in flat areas near Normandy. Then, they silently walked to the bridges and attacked the Germans that were guarding the bridges. The Germans were defeated. There is a national D-Day memorial in Bedford, Virginia. ====
