The D day is the day (6 June 1944) in the Second World War on which Allied forces invaded northern France by means of beach landings in Normandy.

The D simply stands for “day.” The designation was traditionally used for the date of any important military operation or invasion, according to the National World War II Museum. Thus, the day before June 6, 1944, was known as D-1 and the days after were D+1, D+2, D+.
