In the early 1960s, I spent my summers on my granny's farm and read books. One day, I found this obscure book on the bottom shelf titled "Attack Can Win in 1943!" It was pretty thick but not well written and I have forgotten most of it. The mere existence of that book shows me that the idea of an earlier invasion was an active topic on the home front, regardless of its real-world practicality.
Should've mentioned the Dieppe raid, it was one of the major reasons why it was pushed back to 44.
Great video!
This sounds fascinating, can't wait to watch!!
At best, it maybe would’ve prevented Germany from being split or preventing some more areas from falling to the Iron Curtain.
Falling to western colonialism would be just as bad or worse tbh
Not really.@@beburs

Loving the Normandy series.
Very interesting.
How about a episode about Operation Unthinkable?
I would learn something new with that because I dont know anything about it.
Marshal wasn't the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, get your facts straight.
