5. ● The landings were preceded by air attacks along the French coast. ● About 1,300 RAF planes were involved in the first wave of assaults then 1,000 American bombers took up the attack dropping bombs on targets in northern France.

6. The end of Dooms day. ● The Nazis fought desperately, but by this time Germany was at the end of her strength, and many Nazis soldiers were just 16-year old's. ● By August Paris had fallen and (despite a short Nazi counter-attack called ‘The Battle of the Bulge’) the Allies pushed relentlessly into Germany until they met up with Russian forces. ● On 7 May, 1945, the Nazis surrendered – it was VE Day (Victory in Europe.) ●
