D-Day at Last | April - June 1944 | World War II

Video Description

The D-Day landings achieved great success due to several factors, including the element of surprise. Despite the massive gathering of troops along the southern coast of England, German intelligence remained unaware of the impending invasion. Hitler's Generals, under the impression that the rough weather conditions made a landing impossible, were taken off guard. Although the mission was nearly impossible, the combination of surprise and a massive invasion force proved to be a winning formula.
