“The Allies suffered roughly 10,000 casualties on D-Day. IIRC. And this report wants me to believe 26,000?”
The allies weren’t forced to try D-Day without air support.
Marginally relevant here.
The attackers do have some air defenses.
Not buying the report’s numbers.
To my knowledge the allies has very limited air support on D day, compared to any modern standard.
That’s not to say air support isn’t needed. We suffered s lot of losses on D Day.
