Default D-Day

6/6/44...and a steady air and sea bombardment began to overwhelm the German defenses.



420,000 soldiers from both sides were killed, wounded, or went missing during the Battle of Normandy. But the invasion succeeded. It always looks better on paper...

While watching documentaries of D-Day I was surprised to learn that the Germans found a dead Allied Officer with a briefcase handcuffed to his wrist. Inside was the entire battle plan for the D-Day invasion.

Unknown to the Allies then, the Germans knew the entire D-Day (and after) battle order, including the bridges the paratroopers were to take and hold in preparation for the main invasion force moving inland.
