D-Day & the Normandy Landings
D-Day was the largest seaborne invasion ever attempted, and almost nothing about it was left to chance. This quiz covers the planning, the five landing beaches, the airborne drops, and the deception campaign that kept German armour waiting in the wrong place.
Questions reach past the landings themselves into the weeks that followed — the bocage fighting, the Mulberry harbours, and the breakout.
A good check on whether you know Normandy as more than a single morning.
