The best description of Eisenhower on D-DAY would be that Eisenhower took responsibility for the difficult decisions he had to make.
<h3>What did Eisenhower do on D-Day?</h3>
Eisenhower was the overall Allied Commander which meant that he was in charge of planning for the invasion of Western Europe in 1944.
He therefore had a lot of difficult decisions to make but he didn't shy away from them. He instead took responsibility and ordered on the the largest operations in WWII to begin.
