"Of the 180,000 destined to step foot on the Normandy beaches fewer than 2,500 were killed on D-Day itself." Allied losses had been high: 2,500 men at OMAHA alone, another 2,500 among the
American airborne divisions, almost 1,100 for the Canadians, and some 3,000 for
the British—more than 9,000 men in all, one-third of whom were killed in action.
