On June 6th, 1944, Allied troops from the United States, Great Britain, and Canada launched the largest amphibious invasion (launched from the sea by an [amphibious force], embarked in ships or crafts, to land the [landing force] and establish it on a hostile or potentially hostile shore) in history. The goal was to establish a foothold in Nazi-occupied France. Code name "Operation Overlord", it later became known as D-Day. Over 160,000 Allied troops took part in the landings, with more than 5,000 ships and landing craft.
The landing sites were five beaches in Normandy, France. The U.S. would land on Utah and Omaha beaches, the British would land on Gold and Sword beaches, and the Canadians would land on Juno.
Sabaton Sing about history, they sing about huge number of nations, Finland, poland, japan, USA. Australia to name just a few, they sing about everything war and history related, from famous last stands like Spartans in thermopylae (Sparta) to people saving others with risk of their own lives (Ballad of bull) on to the thoughts of a young man going to war (En livstid i krig, it is in Swedish so subtitles required, I stronly recommend the live version from Göteborg Sweden)
D-Day, which took place on June 6, 1944, was the code name for the Allied invasion of Normandy in France during World War II. It was one of the largest amphibious invasions in history and marked the beginning of an extensive offensive by the Allies against Nazi Germany in Western Europe. The invasion involved a massive landing of troops from the USA, the United Kingdom, Canada, and other Allied nations, who landed on five beaches in Normandy known as Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno, and Sword. D-Day was critical for establishing a stronghold in Europe, which later led to the liberation of France and ultimately the defeat of Nazi Germany. The operation was carefully planned and involved extensive logistical and military preparations, including false information to mislead the German military about the invasion site. D-Day is considered a turning point in the war and had significant consequences for the outcome of the conflict.
@@RichardAndewSwayne Good question !…..I’m not Swedish, it’s not everything that is taught in school. Plus This is a reaction channel, if I had researched it, I won’t be here giving my first time reaction to sabaton…Research should come after my reaction. That’s the whole idea of a “reaction channel”
@@CeadDiscoversEurope I'm not Swedish either. Also, Sweden was neutral. What happened on the 6th of June 1944 was one of the most iconic moments in history.

Why be a jerk about it and not simply say that happened? She asked a question, no need to be a jerk.
@@lokiodinson2326 Why ask a question when you can do research?
