D-Day at Juno Beach – introduction<\/h2>\n\n

D-Day and the role of Juno Beach<\/h3>\n\n

Juno Beach is one of the 5 D-Day landing beaches and a major site of the Second World War. More than 14,000 Canadian soldiers landed there by sea or parachute on June 6, 1944. The Royal Canadian Air Force and 10,000 sailors from the Royal Canadian Navy played a crucial role, supporting the invasion both from the air and from the English Channel.<\/p>\n\n

Juno Beach is the stretch of coastline assigned to Canadian forces, when British soldiers landed at Sword Beach and Gold Beach, and the American army at Utah Beach and Omaha Beach. In all, 45,000 Canadian soldiers lost their lives to save Europe from this major conflict of the 20th century.<\/p>\n\n
