"Nevertheless, the Normandy campaign reminds us that war is by nature horrific, fraught with foolish error -- and only won by the side that commits the least number of mistakes."

Oh, please. Only its own refusal to commit to victory could have beaten the US. The numbers were always going to be in its favor.

Oh, Please?

I am not sure if I am misinterpreting your tone or not, but I don’t appreciate the dismissive tone.

Too many people take the victory in WWII as a given thing. It was NEVER a given thing at the time. It is always easy to look back and say that.
