True.

But Hitler really did argue that the only logical place to land the allied army was the Pas De Calais.

Like I said, don’t simply write of any attacks as a diversion.

Personally, I prefer Patton’s adage about never defending, rather only attacking. He would probe all along a front, and then exploit weaknesses as he found them.

Rommel was of the opinion that the Allies would at Normandy, but was overruled by Hitler.
