[starwarslizzard7904]

were they jump over omaha beach cus i am a llittle confused were they r deploying

[adengl]

They are deploying behind the beaches to help take out inland forces so the regular infantry could easily move inland. Easy company dropped past Utah Beach. Unfortunately in all the confusion of explosions and bad technology, most of the troopers were miss-dropped.

[adengl]

The 1940s may have seen some dark times but at least smoking on planes was allowed back then!

[Cmdr1234]

i would have shit my pants up just to normally jump safely out of the safest airplane today in clear weather, i can't imagine the fear they must have had, the plane shaking more than a roller coaster, at night, knowing they had to jump, seeing planes with 20+ soldiers in it bursting into flames, flak blowing up corpses on the drop, and when you land you're alone with inumerous quad flak guns shooting all around you...

RIP...

Those pilots were true heroes manoeuvring and dumping their speed despite the fact that it would spell certain death for them just so that the airborne could get out before their engines blew.

@URAGamekid LT. Richard Winters has got to be amongst the top military leaders of all time though, but i do agree somewhat, but wars are won on the front line. Let's just respect every soldier who fought in this war, Americans and Allies

[URAGamekid]

@nashisbeastmodeya

A British soldier wrote that in Africa he was discraced to see an American officer not know how to command his troops. They had the best soldiers, but the worst officers/commanders.

[nashisbeastmodeya]

@URAGamekid that's why Germany surrendered in the name of America, not the allies. And the British were good planners, but not good fighters, the Limey's couldn't handle themselves on the front line

[URAGamekid]

@nashisbeastmodeya

And they planned the invasion and everything else that won the war because the Yanks couldn't.

[nashisbeastmodeya]

@URAGamekid but they cause a major downfall that led to losing equipment and a lot of injuries, broken ankles, legs, arms etc

[URAGamekid]

@nashisbeastmodeya

Because they planned the whole friggin D-Day invasion.

[nashisbeastmodeya]

@URAGamekid Why? they came up with the stupid leg pack idea which caused more trouble than you could imagine

[tweeterballer]

@starwarslizzard7904 no the point of the airborne was to assault further inland to prevent the shelling of the beaches they knocked out and destroyed the german garrison in normandy so the landing forces could advance and setup a beach head, they deployed much further inland just type in operation overlord in google or some shit
