Question: The 3rd Canadian Division is a formation of the Canadian Army, the second iteration served with distinction, for taking part in which event that were the landing operations, of the Allied invasion of Normandy in Operation Overlord during World War II? 

<P0-S0>  The largest seaborne invasion in history, the operation began the liberation of German-occupied northwestern Europe from Nazi control, and contributed to the Allied victory on the Western Front. <P0-S1> The Normandy landings (codenamed Operation Neptune) were the landing operations on Tuesday, 6 June 1944 (termed D-Day) of the Allied invasion of Normandy in Operation Overlord during World War II. <SEP> <P1-S0> The 3rd Canadian Division is a formation of the Canadian Army. <P1-S1>  It was first created as a formation of the Canadian Corps during the First World War. <P1-S2>  It was stood down following the war and was later reactivated as the 3rd Canadian Infantry Division during the Second World War. <P1-S3>  A duplicate of the 3rd Canadian Division was formed in 1945 to serve on occupation duty in Germany, and was disbanded the following year. <P1-S4>  In 2013, Land Force Western Area, a peacetime military organization in western Canada, was ordered to be redesignated as 3rd Canadian Division. <P1-S5>  On 6 June 2014, the 3rd Canadian Division adopted the insignia, traditions and history of the previous formations. <P1-S6>  The second iteration served with distinction from 1941 to 1945, taking part in the D-Day landings of 6 June 1944. <P1-S7>  From the middle of 1916, the division has been identified by a distinctive French-Grey patch worn on the uniforms of its soldiers. <SEP> <P2-S0> Juno or Juno Beach was one of five beaches of the Allied invasion of German-occupied France in the Normandy landings on 6 June 1944 during the Second World War. <P2-S1>  The beach spanned from Courseulles, a village just east of the British beach Gold, to Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer, just west of the British beach Sword. <P2-S2>  Taking Juno was the responsibility of the Canadian Army, with sea transport, mine sweeping, and a naval bombardment force provided by the Royal Canadian Navy and the British Royal Navy as well as elements from the Free French, Norwegian, and other Allied navies. <P2-S3>  The objectives of the 3rd Canadian Infantry Division on D-Day were to cut the Caen-Bayeux road, seize the Carpiquet airport west of Caen, and form a link between the two British beaches of Gold and Sword on either side of Juno Beach. <SEP> <P3-S0> Operation Dragoon (initially Operation Anvil) was the code name for the Allied invasion of Southern France on 15August 1944. <P3-S1>  The operation was initially planned to be executed in conjunction with Operation Overlord, the Allied landing in the Normandy, but the lack of available resources led to a cancellation of the second landing. <P3-S2>  By July 1944 the landing was reconsidered, as the clogged-up ports in Normandy did not have the capacity to adequately supply the Allied forces. <P3-S3>  Concurrently, the French High Command pushed for a revival of the operation that would include large numbers of French troops. <P3-S4>  As a result, the operation was finally approved in July to be executed in August.
