"The Allied victory at Omaha Beach was a costly one. A direct infantry assault against a defense that was years in the making, undertaken in daylight following a mere thirty-minute bombardment, the attack had neither the advantage of tactical surprise nor that of overwhelming firepower. The American forces that landed on the beach were forced to improvise under enemy fire, and although they were ultimately victorious, they suffered terrible casualties. Why did the Allies embark on an attack with so many disadvantages?
