To arrange the steps of planning for the D-Day invasion in the correct order, we typically consider the historical events leading up to the actual invasion. Here is the chronological order of key steps in the planning of D-Day:
- Meeting at Casablanca (January 1943)
- Operation Bodyguard Plan (1939-1943 - This was the overarching deception plan for the invasion)
- Selection of Normandy as the invasion site (Planning began in 1943, with specific emphasis on Normandy in mid-1943)
- Operation Overlord planning (March 1944 - The formal planning for the invasion itself)
- Final preparations and troop deployment (May 1944)
- D-Day occurs (June 6, 1944)
