German: U-boats were bottled up in French ports, the Luftwaffe had fewer than 400 serviceable fighters after Normandy....fighter production increased, but the loss of experienced pilots, loss of fuel, and by Nov '44, pilots had only 3-5 hours training time in Bf 109s. Prior to Normandy, there wer formidable Panzer formations, most notably reconstituted units...21st, Panzer Lehr, 1st SS LAH, 2nd SS Das Reich, Frundsberg and Hohenstauffen divisions. The 12th SS was new and were obliterated along with the rest from the swarms of allied fighter bombers. Skeleton forces escaped the Falaise pocket and made it back to the fatherland.
Allied air superiority won the day in Europe....

The Germans are still very strong even though they are fighting on three fronts.
Italy is easy for them to defend because of the nature of the terrain.
In Normandy they are in a weaker postion but manage to keep the Allies from breaking out for six weeks.
In Russia they are in retreat before the Soviet army and this is where they put their greatest effort.

What went wrong out there were different from world war two.
The third wave of liberation of freedom is to solve the blunders and slip-ups with human errors created back in the past centuries being expose after the mystery of us-911.

the germans were caught by surprise because of weather conditions, cummunication system failure, and reports of paratroopers at another location. it wasn't untill 3 hours after the attack the germans figured out what's going on and where it is. On that day 150,000-200,000 allied soldiers landed on Normandy.
