D-DAY INVASION: JUNE 6TH, 1944
• D-Day and the invasion points were guarded secrets.
• The purpose was to get troops on the ground in an attempt to liberate France.
• After Allied troops gained a foothold in Normandy, they were able to destroy much of the German occupation forces, liberate France and continue to march across Europe and ultimately destroy Germany.
• D-Day inspired many French citizens to rise up against the Germans.

A FULL MOON WAS NEEDED…WHY?
1. To allow the Allied pilots to see their drop off targets better
2. A high tide was needed to allow ships to come closer to the shore (protection of soldiers)
