On D-Day, the Allies landed around 156,000 troops in Normandy. 73,000 American (23,250 on Utah Beach, 34,250 on Omaha Beach, and 15,500 airborne troops), 83,115 British and Canadian (61,715 of them British) with 24,970 on Gold Beach, 21,400 on Juno Beach, 28,845 on Sword Beach, and 7,900 airborne troops.
FACT: *Normandy landing was idiotic, and they were saved by Russia!* 80% German troops were busy fighting Russia. The dumb Normandy landing would have been liquified by Germans had it not been for Russia. 70% German deaths were by Russian fire. Only a tiny fraction of German military was left. Germans knew that if they lost to Russia, rest wouldn't matter. And that is what happened. Russians reached Berlin, decimating German resistance. Americans and others who survived owe their lives to Russia.
If don’t think it’s really fair to say that Hollywood had attempted to erase the memory of British and Canadian participation during D-Day. The simple fact is that Omaha beach (the American sector) was the scene of the most grueling, hideous appallingly gruesome and bloody combat that day. That’s why most of the films focus on that sector- it makes sense that you’d want to put the most dramatic version of events on screen. As awful as it is to say, these films are on offer as entertainment. So, you’ve got to assume that they’re going to put the most enthralling, dramatic scenes on camera.
Why? Never heard that question asked. The defenses were overwhelmed by numbers and resources... the same reason why any defense ever failed. It didn't help that the Germans manning that defense were largely invalids, previous rejects and recalls formed into "static" divisions, meaning that there wasn't a single vehicle issued.

It’s interesting to see how this documentary- which was made in around 1998 or 1999- did not benefit from advancements in research about D-Day in regard to the effects of shore bombardment. At this point, they still believed that the naval bombardment was largely effective, and blamed the “few pockets” of surviving shore emplacements on the “inevitable” luck of a few deeper German dugouts which were impervious to the shelling. In reality, we now know that shore bombardment during WWII was largely ineffective no matter when or where it took place. This includes the pre-landing bombardments in the Pacific theater, at Iwo Jima, in Normandy, and many many others. It wasn’t totally ineffective- it had a tremendous psychological effect, and it did take out some gun positions. But ultimately it wasn’t nearly as effective as it was believed to be at the time…. Or almost 55 years later, in 1998.
8:19 That's not quite true because they would continue to present an obstacle for other landings elsewhere. Carrying out more landings could have been a strategically sound flanking manouvre that would benefit from the element of surprise, but would not be worth the risk if there are no poorly defended parts of the coast in suitable locations.
Just about to watch this. I hope there's D-Day content. I've realised the issue with this channel is that you put misleading titles. I was watching a video about the invasion of Italy and for 90% of the video all you were talking about was Erwin Rommel
Rommel was wrong. The Japanese knew better because they had defense away from the reach of the US Navy. Rommel was an idiot for betting everything in range of the guns of the US Navy.
Powerful walls, no roof (Luftwaffe). The Longest Day parodied this fact by showing three (!!!) fighters briefly strafing the beach and then withdrawing, with one of the pilots sarcastically saying that the Luftwaffe has made its contribution to this historical moment.
The German area HQ got reports of airborne troops landing, but then they found some dummies attached to parachutes and decided that it was a mass airdrop of dummies to confuse them. So the reports of airborne troops landing were ignored for a critical couple of hours.
Because there is no possible way an overstretched army lacking basic motorized mobility can successfully defend a 1000 mile line against an enemy who has 20X the resources and complete command of the sea and air. I know that there was a lot of heroism, risk and casualties in the landings and people need to bask in old glorious battles. But it was inevitable the allies would crack the line somewhere and put an army ashore
Yeah sure for you Americans every war is a party but what if some country trow some nucks on you then you are lost even with over a million nuclear misseles all over the place and in space.
i just thought of this but have never heard it spoken of before... why wasnt germany running a near continuous lap of recon plans to see any incoming forces? it seemed like a major surprise and maybe even a decoy but wouldnt a handful of recon planes picked up this many ship grouped up an headed over giving a massive headstart to the Axis defensives?!
Weren’t there issues with the inaccuracy of the USAAF and RAF heavy bombing, some of this due to the weather? What about the over engineering (unreliability) of the Panthers & Tigers?
I love the Narrator comment about Hollywood making it about the USA landings when it was US weapons, US tanks, US Supplies that even made it possible to do it at all. Also Montgomery gave his men the best landing locations giving the Americans the most insane landing at Utah. After all that, it was the Americans that actually broke out into France with less men as the Narrator confirmed while Montgomery throw his men over and over failing to capture Caen.
Having to fight for 4 stright years without much breaks doesn't make the army stronger. It wears on them physically and mentally day after day, week after week, and year after year. They were weaker and wore out against fresh troops after fresh troops.
I agree with your comment in a national sense only. The German troops attempting to secure the French coast had been stationed there and had not been fighting the Russians.
Sent their medals back 😡 British tank designers came up with the best medium and heavy tanks of the war, admittedly in the last few weeks of a five year war, but you can't have everything 😕
The Germans had excellent self propelled artillery and even vehicles for towing artillery. It is obvious that modern Western and Communist armies borrowed heavily from that technology.
See how he said that about the American generals that more troops were Canadian and British , but the naval forces were overwhelmingly USA ships and the air forces were 60% or more. The USA ground forces that followed up then the invasion from the south of France led the USA to having over 60 divisions by 1945 whereas the Brits were breaking up divisions to disperse to others due to losses. Even though the Germans were weak due to them being engaged in a massive struggle in the East the invasion of France would not have happened without USA troops. The German army in the West was weak in Western Europe. 60 divisions and half were weak defense divisions. There was no way they could defend all that coastline with that small force lacking replacements too.

The invasion of Okinawa was much bigger than Overlord in terms of ships and soldiers in 183,000 (all Americans) versus the landing of 165,000 troops on Normandy.
real reason for their failure was because at close quarters with the french troops , they were too, too busy holding their noses to prevent their being overcome by the frenchies stinking garlic breaths....even de gaulle couldn't take it anymore ...grabbed a dingy...and fled to uk ...where he hid under a bed in the war office , till the end of the war ...fact .uk's first illegal immigrant ...
Could the massive loss of life on Omaha beach have been avoided by a strategy of close-quarters Allied artillery assault on the German clifftop positions by heavily-armoured boats coming in close to the beach, before any landing craft and "boots on the beach"?
The United States attacks 2 beachs buy itself, the rest of the world attacks the other 3 beaches. Leave it to a British commentator to belittle the American effort. Yet the Canadians , Poles and Brits were outfited with large amounts of US equipment.
Thats rich. Pretty sure its a common 'fake' American narrative taught over there that they single handedly won the war all by themselves. The commentator is literally just stating facts of what the numbers were that attacked the beaches.
