The Americans stormed the beaches of Omaha and Utah, the British at Sword and Gold beaches, and the Canadians came ashore at Juno beach. Allied paratroopers had dropped behind German lines the prevent reinforcements from coming to the front as the seaborne landing troops came ashore. A successful beachhead was established which allowed for the Allies to breakout into Northwestern France in their march to Germany.
