explains nothing; try again
I have already posted about the Iraq vs. Coalition War.
I have never heard D-Day called a blitz or Blitzkieg.
Try again. You have yet to explain; which is which? Is that even a legitimate question here? You explain NOTHING, dds.
Blitz vs blitzkrieg you idiot.
Both are tactics, both are used and accomplish similar goals, but both are different in war.
D-day, Omaha Beach, was a blitz. Desert Storm, where the US wiped Iraqs army off the face of the Earth, which at the time, was said to be the biggest, lasted mere days, is considered a blitzkrieg.
You following or do you need a picture book too? I just need you to promise me you won't drool on it though.
blitz is done in American Football.
Is that your only insult, dds, to imply that I need a coloring book or a picture book? You are pathetic, just as you show calling D-Day a Blitz. Go READ history and not the comic book version of it.
Here is one definition:
What is Blitz?
The 'Blitz' – from the German term Blitzkrieg ('lightning war') – was the sustained campaign of aerial bombing attacks on British towns and cities carried out by the Luftwaffe (German Air Force) from September 1940 until May 1941.
I have NEVER heard D-Day referred to as a Blitz or Blitzkrieg. Try to "google it" dds and see what YOU FIND, dds. Maybe ONE historian (likely very obscure, I assume) will refer to D-Day as a Blitz. Here is one URL I found when I "googled it" and NONE makes a reference to D-Day as a "blitz."
https://www.latimes.com/nation/nationnow/la-na-why-its-called-d-day-story.htmlOne more, for the FUN of it, for dds, who likes the comic book versions of history, since he cannot read more than 500 words in one sitting; if he does so, he is overwhelmed and has to pull out his coloring books:
https://www.britannica.com/topic/blitzkriegdds again shows that he cannot explain himself without using insults, vitriol, and invectives. PATHETIC.
The D-Day offensive was a great success, using deception, an amphibious assault of fortified positions, gliders and paratroopers, and thousands of men to assault the German defenses in Northern France on five beachfronts. Using Patton as the leader of a potential attack near Calais to keep German reserves waiting in the wrong place was brilliant, too.
D-Day = Blitz? I think NOT, dds. You again demonstrate your propensity to failure and to offer insults and ad hominem attacks. You would never be asked to lead anything, dds. I doubt you could lead a one car parade. Bastante para hoy.
