The Nazi's invaded Northwestern France and were also planning to take over the English Channel so they could invade Britain. America wanted to help Britain because they were their Allied Interest so they could stop Nazi Germany from becoming too powerful. They wanted to stop them by surprising them. They sent fake messages on where they were going to land to make the Germans focus more on those areas then where they were actually going to land.

There were five beaches that the Allied Forces chose to land on. The five beaches were called Omaha, Utah, Juno, Sword, and Gold all of these had poor landing conditions but with weak defenses. General Dwight Eisenhower and the General of the American troops chose to land at Omaha and Utah  because they were the most difficult to invade. The British landed at Gold and helped the Canadians at Sword. The Canadians landed at Juno and Sword. The Allies successfully invaded all of the beaches.

After the Allies invaded the beaches they made their way into France. The Allies eventually take over the first German town and Hitler responds by trying to cut off the Allies supply lines. It doesn't work and eventually Hitler retreats from the war for good.
