Definition of Dâday. : a day set for launching an operation; specifically : June 6, 1944, on which Allied forces began the invasion of France in World War II.
the first use of D for Day, H for Hour was in Field Order No. 8, of the First Army, A.E.F., issued on Sept. 20, 1918, which read, âThe First Army will attack at H-Hour on D-Day. with the object of forcing the evacuation of the St. Mihiel salient.ââ (p. 491) In other words, the D in D-Day merely stands for Day. This coded designation was used for the day of any important invasion or military operation. For military planners (and later historians), the days before and after a D-Day were indicated using plus and minus signs: D-4 meant four days before a D-Day, while D+7 meant seven days after a D-Day. In Paul Dicksonâs War Slang, he quotes Robert Hendricksonâs Encyclopedia of Word and Phrase Origins, Many explanations have been given for the meaning of D-Day, June 6, 1944, the day the Allies invaded Normandy from England during World War II.
