I'd love to know who was the genius responsible for actually giving the go for troops to land on a beach that they knew had :

1- Heavily fortified bunkers w/ machine guns
2- Machine gun nests doing the same as the bunkers.
3- Obstacles preventing their vehicles to land
4- Mines here and there
5- Periodical mortar strikes

It was a mistake from the start.. YOU DON'T SEND TROOPS IN A SITUATION LIKE THIS REGARDLESS OF HOW MANY MEN YOU HAVE TO "SACRIFICE" IN THE NAME OF LIBERTY. lol

You simply airstrike the shit out of the beaches until suitable conditions arise..

I know it's all easier said than done, but in the end, alot less people would've died.

Of course, I could be wrong...

They could have always invaded Norway, but that wouldn't help them take down Germany any faster.
