 : A Hypothetical Landing on an enemy coast


A Hypothetical Landing on an enemy coast

Less than a month before the D-Day Normandy landings. It is presented as a hypothetical representation of an invading army landing on a strongly fortified flat coastland, with lines showing the first and second objectives on D-Day - the first to establish a beachhead and take the sea wall by 10.00 hours, the second to move further inland and take the nearest settlement of size
