Allies wanted to convince the Germans that their intended target was Pas de Calais, 50 kilometers from the British coat, when it was actually going to occur in Normandy. To disguise the location of the attack, Allies launched preliminary attacks, with fake planes, landing crafts and tanks to mislead German intelligence. Paratroopers were first dropped behind enemy lines to capture and secure strategic points, then bombers attacked German defenses and finally, in the darkness of night, troops began arriving by ship and stormed the beaches of Normandy. 47. The Allies resorted to weapons of mass destruction (atomic bombs) because Albert Einstein warned the USA that Germany was creating its own WMD and the atomic bomb was created in response.

The Italian Campaign was an Allied assault on the Italian island of Sicily in July of 1943. Italians offered little resistance. The Allies made it to Italian mainland quickly but were met with more resistance there (German soldiers had been sent in to reinforce). Mussolini was defeated in September of 1943 and murdered by his own
