Why did the Allied planners choose Normandy for the cross-channel invasion of Fortress Europe What did they do to confuse the Germans?
The Germans expected the Alllies to land at Calais which would have been more strategic but Eisenhower knew this and so dummies were sent to Calais to divert men away from Normandy. The Germans expected the Allies to cross the channel at the shortest route, which would be at Pas de Calais. Previous attempt to land in France was targeted at a port city. The Allies instead decided to land on an open beach that was not near any port or city. They designed a floating port that would help them land the materials necessary to support the army until they could capture the port at Cherbourg. The Allies tried to decieve the Germans into believing that the landing had to be at Pas de Calais. That included bombing the area. On the day of the landings, they dropped dummy paratroopers(no, not stupid paratroopers, but dummy models of them). There were many other tricks that were used to mislead the Germans as to where the landings would be.
