The 26th Infantry Division, also known as the "Yankee Division," did not land on the beaches of Normandy during D-Day, June 6, 1944. Instead, they participated in operations in the European theater after the initial landings, primarily in the liberation of areas in France and later in the Battle of the Bulge. Their main combat actions took place in regions like the Vosges Mountains and the Rhineland.
