Getting Rommel and Rundstedt’s command relationship wrong and their “debate” while citing Ambrose right after…lol
“Historians are so concerned with finding out what happened that they make the enormous mistake of equating facts with truth...you can't get the truth from facts. The truth is the way you feel about it” is basically all you need to know about Foote
This stuff drives me bonkers because if you’re going to use historical analogies, you should actually get the history right in the first place
The “debate” between Rommel and Rundstedt wasn’t really over a defense “on the beach” or “near the beach” but rather, do we keep the panzer division split up near the beaches or together near the beaches, that was the whole ballgame
AGAIN, citing Cornelius Ryan, is a giant red flag, subsequent scholarship has shown how much of a paper tiger the Atlantic wall was, despite “millions of tons of concrete and half a million men”
Jerking off Rommel, who completely mismanaged the Normandy campaign from day one…lmao
With one MEU, half a CBT, and whose who of OpErAtOrS, I see no flaws in this plan
