Well... here's what happened. Outside the coast of Normady was an Island that had some Nazi defenses. But the main defence base was the mainland. But the allies were acting like they were going to land on the island. So Germany brought some of the defenses to the island. The following night the allies dropped paratroopers on the mainland. The same night a scout ship saw the allies heading toward: Utah, Omaha, Juno and Sword. So he telographed the mainland and they prepared for the invasion.

No it was not.They knew that they were expecting an attack soon.its just that they didnt know were it was going to be.The Germans had suspected that they were going to land at Pas-De-Calais,due to the fact that it was the shortest distance of water to travel in between Britain and France,so they heavily fortified that with concrete and guns and infintry/panzer divisions.and they also put germanys all famous general "Rommel"in charge of that area.but in the end the invasion took place way down farther than were they though it was.

Yes. Foreigners were able to visit Germany without much difficulty till the start of World 2 and many commented on the persecution of the Jews.

Did the US step in to help the Jews when they fought germens?

yes, because after the U.S. captured the concentration camps the nazi had we set free all the imprisoned Jews in those camps.A different answer1. There is no evidence whatsoever that any of the Allies - and that of course includes the U.S. - "stepped in to help the Jews". All the Allies found themselves fighting Germany for much more conventional reasons. 2. The U.S. went to war against Germany when the latter, as an ally of Japan, declared war on America.3. As for the Holocaust, the U.S. and British governments did not want to know about it till 1944.

Did the US help during the holocaust?

The Germans did a fine job of keeping the extermination process a secret until the end of the of course. While the Germans were retreating back to Berlin, they left the concentration camps as is without destroying them. Thus, the US military was able to seek medical help for those Jews who needed and exploit the German plot to the rest of the world. +++ The extermination and concentration camps were discovered and liberated by various of the Allied nations, not just the US. The Red Army (Soviet Russia) found many as they advanced from the East. Many of the German guards fled before they could be caught, especially fearing the Russians bent on revenge for the attempted Nazi invasion with its horrendous Siege of Stalingrad (now St. Petersburg).

Who are Germany's allies today?

Germany NowYou ask the question as if Germany were still at war in 2005. I find that very odd. Germany is a member of NATO and of the European Union, so it has plenty of allies and trading partners.There is some anti-German feeling in many countries, and especially among some younger (!) people in Europe.their closest allies are France, the United kingdom and the United States of America. their enemy that i know of is Afghanistan -2009
