DDay1

In this book report I read the book D-Day and tells u about the

time before and the grueling battles that led up to the most

memorable and most important day of this century, June 6, 1944, that

was D-Day. Also I will mention key points and describe to you what

intricate planning and grueling strategy that out smarted the German

What really decided the outcome of the war was determined by

three things the number of allies, the number of soldiers that where

positioned right so that they could defend each area equally, but the

problem with the German forces was that they conquered so much

land that they couldn’t defend it all and that was one main reason the

they lost the war. The last main reason was who had more and better

weaponry. Which the Germans had a big advantage for the first part of

the war. The weapons that they had was the V-2, it was the worlds

first medium-range ballistic missile, it wasn’t military weapon at all,

but a terrorist device. They also had invented the ME-262 twin jet

fighter ready for serial production. Its cruising speed was 520 miles

per hour, more than 120 miles an hour faster than any plane the allies

. . .

Russel “Red” Reeder

was commanding officer of the 12th Infantry, scheduled to land at

1030.

The last thing that was a big thing was tact and I think that the

Americans and there allies completely and without a doubt had better

tact

and better execution on the battle field. He said that was the longest four hours in his life. The last two beaches were Juno

and Sword were both taken and D-Day was a success for the

Americans and the Allies. On this beach was a lot of houses that

could be burned by blowing them up and so they did, But the Germans

had a surprise and it was snipers that mainly concentrated on the UDT

and they did. Eisenhower born in

Abilene, Kansas and Rommel on Gmund, Swabia.

Another big thing that the Germans used was the B-17 bombers. seemed to be tied up in some g**d****d things called

LST’s”

Another big factor of the war was the generals because without

generals then you wouldn’t of had have the brilliance behind the two

sides plans of attack. Ed There, one of

Eisenhower subortinants, said quote “ Our new captain, Eisenhower

by name, is, I believe, one of the most efficient and best Army officers

in the country. For example By the end of

1943 the allies had launched three successful attacks from water to

land, North Africa (November 8, 1942), Sicily (July 10,1943), and

Salerno (September 9, 1943) all involving British and American land,

sea, and airforce under the command of Dwight D.

The Germans were also surprised at this whole thing and couldn’t

believe how many ships and soldiers there were. He gets

the fellows imaginations worked up and hollers and yells and makes us

shout and stomp until we go tearing into the air as if we meant

business. I loved reading this book and it was very interesting

and I recommend it to anyone who likes war.
