In my opinion, D Day was the largest turning point for the allied forces in World War Two. approximately 156'000 troops landed on five different beaches on June 6th, 1944. The Americans landed on Omaha and Utah, The British on Gold and Sword, and the Canadian troops on Juno beach. This was the biggest turning point for the allies because of the impact it made on the Germans in France. If the allies had lost the battles on D Day, the Germans may have won the war. As German officer Irwin Rommel stated, "whoever wins the battles of D Day, most likely wins the war". in conclusion, The allied biggest turning point came on june 6th 1944, on the beaches of Normandy, at D Day.
