Rommell really beefed up the Atlantic Wall before D-Day. If Hitler had released the Panzer divisions from Calais right away then D-Day might have turned out differently.

-------------------------------

Rommel had wanted to move heavy reinforcements closer to the beach, but was overruled. If he had had his way the invasion would have been relelled. Additionally, had the German air force was not used. four or five napalm bombs would have destroyed the allies. I might have more to say about this later.

"Napalm"? Was that even a weapon in WWII?
