Explanation:

Beginning with the Invasion of Sicily in July of 1943, and finishing in the June 6, 1944, D-Day attack of Normandy, Allied forces took the fight to the Axis powers in many situations across Western Europe. The push into Italy began in Sicily but soon made it to the Italian region, with landings in the south.

Answer 2

The movement of allied troops during WWII revealed that they were focussing specifically on two separate "theaters": Europe and the Pacific, since it was more efficient for the US to fight the Japanese in the Pacific, separate from Europe until D-Day.
