*The terms Omaha, Sword, and Utah relate to the battle of Normandy in that they were code names for the sections of Normandy beach that were attacked. *
The allied forces used code names to define the area of the beach that they were going to attack. Indeed, the used five code words: Omaha, Utah, Sword, Juno, and Gold. Those were the sectors they attacked. The “D Day” was a key moment to define the war. That day the American forces helped the Allies in a battle that represented the beginning of the end of the war. This battle gave the allies the possibility to enter the continent through France.
