General Esenhower(the commander of the pacific) lead the troops in to France. The U.S army was officially apart of the allied axis. According to d day sources “the invasion itself gave prominence to land forces but provide major roles for air and sea components. More then 1000 troops were transported, or dropped down. Despite the all the bombardment from the air and the sea the Germans reaction was intense. Particularly at Omaha beach where Germany ripped a nice piece out of the U.S Army.
