Why the raid on Dieppe failed?

Answer 1

Answer

The failure of Dieppe should have been seen before the troops went on
shore. The command structure was flawed with no individual in position
to direct operational changes on the spot. Communication technology
wasn't up to the task. Armour couldn't get off the beach. Naval gunfire
coordination was inadequate. Command and Staff hadn't trained with
each other, and finally the point of attack was incorectly chosen. Not all
of the glitches were worked out before Normandy. British DD or funny
tanks were created, and that helped cure a major problem. Creating the
Mulberry Harbors meant forces could land further from port facilities and
command and staff problems were worked out. Good commnications on
the battleield wasn't achieved until after the Vietnam conflict. Knowledge
gained from the early Pacific Theater landings and the lessons learned at
Dieppe assured the success of the D-Day landings.

Answer 2

Because so many Canadian troops were killed or captured by the Germans. And it was senseless; the efforts made at Dieppe made no difference in the war at that time. Winston Churchill didn't even think the raid would be a success, but he was operating on the hope that a successful raid would lead to raised morale in Canada and Great Britain. He really only approved the operation because of pressure from the American government to open a second front on the European front.

Roughly 3,100 Canadians were killed in just under 7 hours of combat. 700 British and American troops were also killed, but Canada's numbers were definitely more shocking.

Answer 3

because Hitler was a good guy
