D-Day

The D-day invasion was planned for so long I don’t think that luck had anything to do with the victory. It was planned years in advance planning intelligence. If they did not think they would succeed then why would they go through with the attack. They had so many groups and army's to fight with them. It was a massive battle with all of the allied forces to take the power out of Germanys hands and end the war. From fake blow up tanks and ships, to little pocket crickets that could save a soldiers life if lost somewhere in France. They had "test" invasions on Dieppe and Dunkirk where they wanted to test their intelligence, the beaches, and just to see if they could win. When the men were slaughtered they realized that their intelligence was bad. They also had a lot less men involved less strategy which lead to their loss. After those two battles they learned what they had to do. Every soldier had a map and many more intelligence related items. In nights before the attack they dropped dummies with fire works on the beach of Pas de Cale, this made the Germans think they are trying to distract them for an attack that would be coming later. This gave them more time on the beaches and many of the Germans were at Pas de Cale. This lead to success in the end although not reaching all they objectives they stormed the beaches taking out the pillboxes and the Germans. They moved through Normandy taking out all German forces. This day of long planning and hard battle lead to the allies defeating the Germans and setting the world back in order.
