The Luftwaffe End is Near France 1944

Artist Unknown

The Prior Months of April and May of 1944 the Allied forces were planning a Major Invasion on Occupied France

The Month of June 1944 over France was the Begining to the End of the Lufftwafe Aircraft and Seasoned Pilot's, This was Operation was Know as Operation Overlord (D-Dday)


The Allied Supreme Commander, General Eisenhower wrote to General Marshall and President Roosevelt "I consider the Transport Plan as indispensable to the preparations to Overlord. There is no other way this tremendous Air Force can help us, during the preparatory period, to get ashore and stay there". By June 6th only two bridges across the Seine river remained intact, and three quarters of the railway system within 150 miles from the assault beaches had been rendered unserviceable. Consequently, the Germans lost the race to build up forces in the Normandy area after the invasion.
