I think it was a good and bad idea because...a) It won the WWII Battle. b) Because they lost so many people. c) it was a hard defence to penetrate and the Allied Forces barely broke through the defences.

Of course it turned out to be a terrible battle, with many loses. In "hind-sight" we should have used more bombardment of that region from major ships, bombers and rockets. BUT a landing HAD to be made there because we could not allow a gap between the British and American landings. One reason the battle was so fierce was the German effort to split the two Allied Armies. So, bad as it was, it was necessary.
