Former places of the Normandy landings
The author writes, puerrtto:
Calais - Bologna
The length of coastline stretching south from Calais and about the small town of balloons were powerful outpost of German troops on the coast. It was here that Hitler expected Allied landing, and the lion's share of power was thrown exactly on the construction here of the strongest line of defense. It should be noted that the allied counterintelligence worked perfectly and skillfully launched by the Germans launched misinformation misleading. In fact, the landing took place in a completely different part of France, in Normandy, which is more than 250 kilometers southwest of Calais.
Not yavlyas professional military historian, invite all those interested to check out more about the events on the relevant sites, such as Wikipedia. Below you can see a small photo album from where almost no blood was shed, and so the majority of the fortifications survived quite well -
