By 1944, Germany controlled most of the countries in Europe. The Allies decided to invade the northern coast of France in an area called Normandy.

On June 6, 1944, 60,000 American and Allied troops arrived onshore at Normandy and surprised the Germans. This operation was known as D-Day. It was the largest invasion by sea in history!

The Allied troops came under heavy fire and thousands of soldiers were killed. The Allies eventually took over all five of the beaches where they had landed and headed inland. By August, Paris had been liberated! By September the Germans were completely out of France.
