Talk:D-Day

I read that the D in D-Day means deliverance.
No it doesnt. Many people believe this though. If you go to dday.org, you will find out that D-Day is just military standard that means the day an operation is to be carried out. H-Hour means the same thing, but hourwise. ~FireElemental
It is often used because of a speech made over the radio aimed at French people saying somthing that mentions day of deliverance
copyvio?
anon User_Talk:70.177.170.196 dropped a large section of material in D-Day today. I am concerned about copyvio issues for 2 reasons (a) user has history of adding copyvio, see hisory of Nicomachean Ethics (b) user vandalized a page 3 minutes before this addition Wolfman 17:57, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- Even if it's kosher, it belonged at Battle of Normandy anyway.

I removed a whole pile of stuff that belongs in Battle of Normandy. Only stuff relevant to the phrase D-Day belongs here. DJ Clayworth 18:58, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Actually, that remaining picture isn't a "plan"--it's a (French) illustration of the whole Battle of Normandy out to <squint> 19 August. And, the color is kind of dingy. On the other hand, having a picture does brighten up a page. Maybe Image:D-day allied assault routes.jpg instead?
