Why did the D-Day attack prove more difficult than the attack of previous battles?

The D-Day attack was more difficult than previous battles due to its complex planning and coordination required for the large-scale amphibious invasion of Normandy. The Allies faced formidable German defenses, including fortified bunkers, obstacles on the beaches, and challenging terrain. Additionally, the timing of the attack was critical, as it depended on favorable weather conditions and precise synchronization of air, land, and sea forces, making it a highly intricate operation compared to earlier battles.


What mistake did general Douglas macarther make in December 1941?

In December 1941, General Douglas MacArthur made the critical mistake of underestimating the threat posed by Japanese forces in the Philippines. He failed to adequately prepare for an imminent attack, which led to the surprise bombing of American airfields on December 8, 1941, just hours after the attack on Pearl Harbor. This oversight resulted in significant losses of aircraft and made it difficult for U.S. forces to mount an effective defense against the subsequent Japanese invasion.
