As the U.S. Defense
Department notes, on June 6, 1944, nearly 160,000 Allied troops landed along a
heavily fortified, 50-mile stretch of French coastline in the historic
operation known as D-Day. Allied casualties were heavy - an estimated 10,000
killed, wounded and missing in action - but by day's end, the Allies had gained
a foothold to begin liberating Europe.
