The Allied Forces were not always able to withstand German assaults but they often did because they were well led, well supplied and they used ingenuity to find ways to conquer the Germans in many battles. The American troops were another reason why the allies were able to withstand the assaults.

Why was it important for the Allies to win on D-day?

The allies were desperate as the German force threatened to overwhelm all of Europe. Additionally, the Soviets needed the creation of a "Second Front" to relieve pressure on the eastern front. Without a successful operation, the allies may not have been able to get all the necessary supplies and troops into Mainland Europe.


Why were the Allies able to withstand German assults?

The Allied Forces were not always able to withstand German assaults but they often did because they were well led, well supplied and they used ingenuity to find ways to conquer the Germans in many battles. My favorite solution they came up with was taking German metal blockades from the Normandy beaches and transforming them into pointed plow apparatuses for the tanks. They were able to crash through the hedgerows in France by doing that. Brilliant!The Allies 'withstood' German assaults simply because there was more allied troops than axis troops - and over time the Germans were unable to replace their losses. Case to points - the Germans on average fielded 250 divisions on any given year, versus the Allied's average 517 divisions. However, because the Germans were better trained and often had the element of surprise on their side, they were able to win spectacular victories during the first two years of the war. However, after two major setbacks in Russia in 1942 and 1943 where they lost over a million men and thousands of tanks and planes, their army was shattered - and the Germans simply could not muster enough forces to defend their territorial gain, let alone continue the offensive. So a German defeat was inevitable in the end.In Normandy, a combination of Hitler's meddling with Germany's battle strategy and lower quality troops (most of their veteran units were fighting in Russia) contributed to an eventual Allied victory there. The German's last desperate push through the Ardennes in 1944 failed due to lack of fuel, poor logistics, lack of air cover (most of their air force was destroyed in Russia) and once again, manpower. In the end, the incessant British and US bombing raids which destroyed its industry, and the approaching allied armies on three fronts was simply too much for the German's rapidly shrinking military to bear, and her defenses simply collapsed by 1945.So yes, the Allied troops may have been reasonably well-led and well supplied - but I think the main reason why they won in the end is because the Germans were outnumbered.
