The Germans knew an attack was coming, the only questions were where and
when? D-Day On Juno Beach examines the Canadian role in the Allied attack
on the most heavily defended place on earth. With obstacles designed to
tear the bottoms out of landing crafts, millions of landmines and hundreds
of concrete bunkers equipped with machine guns and artillery, the beach
was a 400-mile long killing zone. By nightfall, some Canadian units had
advanced 10 kilometres into France, deeper than any other division. History
