On June 6, 1944, 4,415 men died so that freedom wouldnโ€™t. The Allied Forces of World War II wrote the most important story of the last century. - the decisive battle that foreshadowed the end of Hitlerโ€™s dream of N**i domination. When it was over, the Allied Forces had suffered nearly 10,000 casualties; some 4,400 were dead.
