D-Day Was Just The First Day
The Normandy invasion did not take place in a single day. It lasted until the end of August. The Allies suffered 4413 casualties on D-Day alone and approximately 200,000 casualties in total. According to the D-Day center, “There are no reliable figures for German losses, but it is estimated that approximately 200,000 more Germans were taken prisoner.” Germany surrendered on May 7th, 1945, less than a year after D-Day, bringing the war in Europe to a close for the first time.
