Was the Battle of the Normandy Landings a sneak attack?

Normandy itself was not considered a sneak attack, because of the activities of the 2.88 million Allied troops, there was no way to completely hide it from the German high command.

It can only be said that the strategic deception of the Allies has been well done.

A blitzkrieg on Poland is not a sneak attack, it is just a mechanized combat mode.

Pearl Harbor was a sneak attack because Japan attacked Pearl Harbor when the United States was completely unprepared.

Normandy was a landing, not a sneak attack, and there was a battle before the landing, and the Germans also built pillboxes and strengthened their defenses. German submarines were also disrupting the Allied ship build-up Unfortunately, the submarine forces did not work. The Allied destroyers were far away from the periphery of the landing area.

The blitzkrieg on Poland was his fast mechanized advance, Germany declared war on Poland, and Pearl Harbor was because the United States was a neutral country at the time, and you didn't declare war, so you attacked directly. That's why it's called a sneak attack.

No, Normandy can only be regarded as a sound attack on the west, a sneak attack on Pearl Harbor is a cover-out, and a blitzkrieg attack on Poland can only be regarded as an interstellar quick copy.

The pre-battle preparation stage should be a sneak attack war, and after the start it should be a landing operation.

No, the blitzkrieg of Poland and Pearl Harbor have one thing in common: undeclared war.

It can only be said that the Allies have concealed their strategic intentions very well, and it is not a sneak attack.

The Normandy landing campaign was the largest amphibious landing battle in the history of the world, and the victory of the Normandy landing announced the opening of the second theater of the Allied forces on the European continent, which meant that Nazi Germany fell into a two-sided war, reduced the pressure on the Soviet army, and cooperated with the Soviet army to effectively conquer Berlin and force fascist Germany to surrender unconditionally in advance.

As a result, the U.S. military threw its main forces into the Pacific to fight with Japan with all its might, hastening the end of World War II. The victory of the Normandy landings announced the opening of the second theater of the Allied forces on the European continent, which meant that Nazi Germany was caught in the dilemma of fighting on two sides and being attacked from the back, and completely smashed the wishful thinking of the German army in trying to use the Western Front to thwart the landing of the United States and Britain and then draw 50 divisions to be diverted to the Soviet battlefield.

Reasons for the victory of the Normandy landings:

First, the successful organization of strategic deception caused the German high command to make a mistake in judgment, which not only ensured the suddenness of the landing operation, but also ensured the smooth progress of the campaign, which had a major impact on the entire campaign.

2. Absolute air and sea supremacy: This is an important reason for the success of the landing. The Allies put into operation 13,700 aircraft, **9,000, dozens of times more than German aircraft.

Before the landing, the Air Force carried out a large-scale bombing of targets such as the Luftwaffe air base, the aviation industry, and the new ** research and development base, which seriously weakened Germany's war potential.

3. Adequate Material Preparations and Meticulous Reconnaissance Support: In order to ensure the success of the landing, the Allied forces have made preparations for nearly a year, and the number of troops participating in the battle is large and complete, and the preparation of combat materials and equipment for the Allied forces before the landing is very sufficient.

4. Realistic Pre-War Training: Since landing operations are an extremely complex form of operations, the Allied forces conducted repeated simulated exercises on the organization and actions of the participating troops before the landing, so as to enable the troops to master the relevant combat skills as soon as possible and enhance the combat effectiveness of the troops. After the war, the combatants spoke highly of the pre-war training, especially the Thompson training base.
