HISTORY SUMMERY of D-Day (Normandy):
D-Day began just after midnight on Tuesday 6 June
1944, as the Allied 21 Army Group,
with eight divisions (three airborne and five infantry),
three armoured brigades and total air superiority,
landed in western Normandy, which was defended by
three static infantry divisions of 84 Corps,
German 7th Army. Hitler's poor strategic
instincts left his forces unprepared and his caution
prevented a quick reaction or mobile deployment; thus
only 21 Panzer Division counterattacked
decisively near Caen. With daytime movement virtually
excluded by Allied airpower, the deployment by late
June of seven first-line mobile divisions from Panzer
Group West and Army Group G was too late
to destroy the Allied bridgehead. By early July this
had been reinforced to total 28 American, British
and Canadian divisions and five armoured brigades.
HISTORY SUMMERY of the North
Africa campaign: In September 1940 Egypt
was invaded by Italy from Libya. By February 1941,
the little British armoured forces were inflicted
with heavy defeats, thousands of prisoners of war
were taken. But, under General Rommel's aggressive
leadership the German Africa Korps won a brilliant
series of Axis victories.
Rommel threatened Egypt at the summer
of 1942. This was the high point of his campaign.
He suffered shortages of equipment and fuel and his
supply lines were exposed to Allied attack for too
long. Lieutenant-General Montgomery, commander of
the Eight Army since August, won a decisive victory
over Axis forces in November at El Alamein. This battle
ran from 23 October until 4 November costing the British
Eighth Army nearly 13,500 men either killed, wounded
or missing, while the Axis forces had 25,000 and 30,000
prisoners.
