Description: The Allied invasion of Normandy was one of the most complex military operations ever conducted.

The only way to learn was to practice some of the elements of the landing.  In April 1944, about six weeks before D-Day, the Allies conducted a practice exercise off the coast of England, and it turned into one of the biggest disasters of the war.
