Doesn't seem like it's been 80 years already.
On D-Day itself, 2,501 American soldiers lost their lives during the largest amphibious invasion in history1. Additionally, more than 5,000 were wounded. In the subsequent Battle of Normandy, a total of 73,000 Allied forces were killed, and 153,000 were wounded2. The sacrifices made on that day played a crucial role in turning the tide of World War II.
