Normandy (French: Normandie, Norman: Normaundie, from Old French Normanz, plural of Normant, originally from the word for "northman" in several Scandinavian languages) is one of the 18 regions of France, roughly referring to the historical Duchy of Normandy.
Normandy is divided into five administrative departments: Calvados, Eure, Manche, Orne, and Seine-Maritime. It covers 30,627 square kilometres (11,825 sq mi), comprising roughly 5% of the territory of metropolitan France. Its population of 3.37 million accounts for around 5% of the population of France. The inhabitants of Normandy are known as Normans, and the region is the historic homeland of the Norman language.
The historical region of Normandy comprised the present-day region of Normandy, as well as small areas now part of the departments of Mayenne and Sarthe. The Channel Islands (French: Îles Anglo-Normandes) are also historically part of Normandy; they cover 194 km² and comprise two bailiwicks: Guernsey and Jersey, which are British Crown dependencies over which Queen Elizabeth II reigns as Duke of Normandy.
Normandy's name comes from the settlement of the territory by mainly Danish and Norwegian Vikings ("Northmen") from the 9th century, and confirmed by treaty in the 10th century between King Charles III of France and the Viking jarl Rollo. For a century and a half following the Norman conquest of England in 1066, Normandy and England were linked by Norman and Frankish rulers.

The Normandy landings were the landing operations on Tuesday, 6 June 1944 of the Allied invasion of Normandy in Operation Overlord during World War II. Codenamed Operation Neptune and often referred to as D-Day, it was the largest seaborne invasion in history. The operation began the liberation of German-occupied France (and later Europe) from Nazi control, and laid the foundations of the Allied victory on the Western Front.
Planning for the operation began in 1943. In the months leading up to the invasion, the Allies conducted a substantial military deception, codenamed Operation Bodyguard, to mislead the Germans as to the date and location of the main Allied landings. The weather on D-Day was far from ideal and the operation had to be delayed 24 hours; a further postponement would have meant a delay of at least two weeks as the invasion planners had requirements for the phase of the moon, the tides, and the time of day that meant only a few days each month were deemed suitable. Adolf Hitler placed German Field Marshal Erwin Rommel in command of German forces and of developing fortifications along the Atlantic Wall in anticipation of an Allied invasion.
The amphibious landings were preceded by extensive aerial and naval bombardment and an airborne assault—the landing of 24,000 US, British, and Canadian airborne troops shortly after midnight. Allied infantry and armoured divisions began landing on the coast of France at 06:30. The target 50-mile (80 km) stretch of the Normandy coast was divided into five sectors: Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno and Sword. Strong winds blew the landing craft east of their intended positions, particularly at Utah and Omaha. The men landed under heavy fire from gun emplacements overlooking the beaches, and the shore was mined and covered with obstacles such as wooden stakes, metal tripods, and barbed wire, making the work of the beach-clearing teams difficult and dangerous. Casualties were heaviest at Omaha, with its high cliffs. At Gold, Juno, and Sword, several fortified towns were cleared in house-to-house fighting, and two major gun emplacements at Gold were disabled, using specialised tanks.
The Allies failed to achieve any of their goals on the first day. Carentan, St. Lô, and Bayeux remained in German hands, and Caen, a major objective, was not captured until 21 July. Only two of the beaches (Juno and Gold) were linked on the first day, and all five beachheads were not connected until 12 June; however, the operation gained a foothold which the Allies gradually expanded over the coming months. German casualties on D-Day have been estimated at 4,000 to 9,000 men. Allied casualties were at least 10,000, with 4,414 confirmed dead.
Museums, memorials, and war cemeteries in the area now host many visitors each year.

The Longues-sur-Mer battery (in German: Marineküstenbatterie (MKB) Longues-sur-Mer) was a World War II German artillery battery constructed near the French village of Longues-sur-Mer in Normandy. The battery was sited on a 60 m (200 ft) cliff overlooking the sea and formed a part of Germany's Atlantic Wall coastal fortifications. It was located between the Allied landing beaches of Gold and Omaha and shelled both beaches on D-Day (6 June 1944). The battery was captured on June 7 and played no further part in the Normandy campaign.
The battery is the only one in Normandy to retain all its original guns in situ and was listed an historical monument in October 2001. It remains in a good state of conservation.

things I plan to do: add color and interior
While I was off of Flickr, Marvel announced their movies and TV shows for Phase 4, and it looks like it's going to be great! I decided to make a lot of figs for the movies/shows, accompanied by a brief description of my thoughts on the movie/show.
Black Widow: (Black Widow, Taskmaster, Red Guardian) To start Phase 4, we have Black Widow! Based on the descriptions of the revealed footage, the fight scenes sound like they will be amazing. Taskmaster's concept art also got revealed, and while it's not as good as Spider-Man PS4's, I really like how it looks. However, since the movie is set between Civil War and Infinity War, I wonder how they're going to tie Taskmaster into the universe. And we finally get to see Budapest! The figures I designed were my pre-existing Black Widow and Taskmaster, alongside an idea as to what David Harbour's Red Guardian could look like.
The Falcon and the Winter Soldier (Falcon, Winter Soldier, Zemo): The first of the Disney+ shows, and it looks great! So glad to see Zemo finally don the iconic mask. Hopefully, Falcon gets a cool new outfit for his Captain America attire. Agent 13 returning is a cool inclusion as well. The figures I designed were my pre-existing White Wolf, a custom Falcon Cap, and Zemo.
The Eternals (Thena, Ikaris): I have no idea who these guys are. Hopefully, this ends up being a GotG-esque situation where a relatively-unknown team becomes super popular. The leaked concept art looks great though! The figures I designed are Thena and Ikaris.
Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (Shang-Chi, Mandarin): Finally, the real Mandarin! Really wish we could have seen him in Iron Man 3, but better late than never. Another character that I don't know much about, but more MCU diversity is always a win! The figures are a semi-accurate/inspired by Shang-Chi and the Mandarin.
WandaVision (Scarlet Witch, Vision): God I hate this title so much. It sounds like a middle schooler's fan fiction title. Also, Vision is back which kinda renders the powerful Infinity War scene pointless? Should be a fun show nonetheless. The figs are the standard Age of Ultron Scarlet Witch and Vision.
Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness (Doctor Strange, Scarlet Witch, Nightmare): Apparently this is the MCU's first horror film? It's still PG-13 but is a "suspense thriller". And with Nightmare as the villain, the VFX should be incredible yet again. Also, Wanda is teaming up with Doctor Strange! I really hope it's about Doctor Strange teaching Wanda to really control her chaos magic into more than energy bolts. The figures are the normal Doctor Strange, Scarlet Witch, and a custom Nightmare.
Loki (Loki): I hate the logo. It's objectively terrible. But alternate 2012 Loki hopping around time to turn himself into humanity's god/ruler? Sounds incredibly fun to watch. The figure is an upgraded 2012 Loki.
What If...? (Captain America [Peggy Carter]): Definitely the show I'm looking forward to the most. The MCU's first animated media and I'm (probably foolishly) hoping it either follows Spiderverse's aesthetic or each episode has a unique style of animation (2D, 3D, classic comic, etc). The figure is a pretty simple Peggy Carter (Captain America), which is the plot behind the first episode.
Hawkeye (Hawkeye, Kate Bishop): I thought Jeremy Renner was done after Endgame, but apparently not! It's rumored that we're seeing more of Ronin which is going to be awesome to watch, and I can't wait to see Kate Bishop on the big screen. Hopefully, we can see Young Avengers in Phase 5! The figures are Civil War Hawkeye and an easy Kate Bishop.
Thor: Love and Thunder (Thor, Valkyrie, Thor (Jane Foster): Rounding out Phase 4 we have Thor: Love and Thunder! So glad to see Taika Waititi back directing! Hopefully, that means we get more Korg. Super surprised Natalie Portman is back as with Marvel as Mighty Thor, and I'm confused how they're going to explain her absence in Ragnarok. Other than that, there's not much we know about the movie at this time. Figures are IW Thor, Valkyrie, and a quick Jane Fos-Thor.
So that's Phase 4! Let me know what you're looking forward to the most, and which figures are your favorites!
Honestly, the binocular didn't looks good for attached to the helmet. Because it stuck on the slant of helmet's cheek.
