Who made the calls for Operation Overload in world war 2?

Overlord! Overlord! Yet, it might as well have been Operation Overload because the German defenders were simply overloaded after the beacheads were established and the Allies began arriving in force. To answer the question, I have heard that General Charles deGaulle demanded to be in charge of the operation, and that Roosevelt and Churchill laughed at him. General George Marshall appeared to be the best choice, but Roosevelt considered him indispensable and kept him in Washington because of the war in the Pacific, so General Eisenhower was selected to make the calls. The original plan called for three divisions to land on separate beaches on D-Day, but Eisenhower insisted on five divisions. Also, D-Day was to be on June 5 but it was delayed by a storm. Eisenhower made the decision to go on June 6, and he was prepared to take full responsibility if Overlord failed. After the landings were successful, Field Marshal Montgomery took over as commander of the Allied ground forces in Normandy.


Who Operation overlord?

No one "wins" operations. Operation Overlord was an Allied offensive, only they knew about it and so only they called it Ovelord. An operation fails or it succeeds. Battles or campaigns are won, not operations. But in terms of the Invasion of Normandy, I think it's fairly obvious that the Allies won. If the invasion had not been successful, we wouldn't have had a war in the Western theater, and all of Europe would have been plunged into communist rule; we wouldn't have had 10,000 movies about D-Day itself and then later about Americans fighting in Europe (Band of Brothers, Saving Private Ryan, The Longest Day, etc); we wouldn't remember June 6th as the anniversary of D-Day; civilians probably wouldn't even be familiar with the term D-Day; and there probably wouldn't be a huge American cemetery in Normandy commemorating the sacrifices of the men who died in the invasion.
