History
Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer is a coastal town located in Normandy, France. It holds significant historical importance due to its involvement in World War II, particularly during the D-Day landings on June 6, 1944.
During the early hours of D-Day, British and Canadian forces landed on the beaches of Normandy, with Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer being one of the landing sites. The beach was codenamed "Juno Beach" and was assigned to the Canadian forces. The objective of the Canadian troops was to secure a beachhead and then push inland to establish a link with the neighboring British forces at Gold Beach.
