The Turning Point
Content: How is it made known that this was a turning point? For one the primary objective of the invasion was achieved because we drove back the German Blitzkrieg, we liberated Europe, and we won the war. Second of all we executed a successful invasion, we landed in Normandy, got through the German resistance. and the Germans had retreated, moving the front line closer to Normandy. The Germans surrendered on May 7, 1945, which was the major outcome of the invasion. and if we had not executed the invasion this may not have happened but it is because of the invasion that the war in Europe ended. The main reason that D-Day was a turning point in history because it helped win the second world war for the Allies and it is found evident from the documents and photos that are provided on this page. The idea to ponder about is if the invasion had not taken place and the Germans won the war, we could be speaking German right now.
