Watch interesting discussion below about the question from PJTV

day over 150,000 troops were on shore and in full control of 80 square miles of the Normandy coast. The success opened the path to the liberation of Europe and the German surrender less than a year later.
In a hastily scribbled note on the eve of the invasion Eisenhower wrote, in part; ",,,My decision to attack at this time and locale was based on the best information available; the troops, the air, and the navy did all that bravery and devotion to duty could do. If any blame or fault attaches to the attempt, it is mine alone."
Below is the image of Eisenhower's note:
