    On D-Day, the US First Army comprising two corps (five divisions with auxiliary units and services - about 73,000 troops) landed on and around Omaha Beach, Utah Beach, and the Cotentin Peninsula. The US provided 16.5 percent of the Allied warships in Operation Neptune and hundreds of landing vessels. Two US air forces - 6,080 tactical and strategic aircraft - served in the Allied Expeditionary Air Force. General Dwight D. Eisenhower led the Allied Expeditionary Force as its Supreme Commander.
