Don't see the problem. Sure, D-Day was important and all, but are you really saying every single June 6th should be dedicated to it? Should we do this with the other large-scale events throughout history, too? Because then pretty much every single day of the 365(1/4) days of the year would have to be a "_________ Day" devoted to some event or another.

Whatever, I mean, June 6th does not mean crap to anyone anymore. Its not like it was one of the most important events in the history of man.
How, exactly, is it "one of the most important events in the history of man"? The landings were the inevitable results of the superior economic and military power of the Allies. It brought the war into its final stages, but it's not as if it's a turning point (like Stalingrad or Midway).

I can think of many, many, many more important events than a single battle in a single war against one of Earth's countless tyrants.
