Скачать или смотреть The Dieppe Disaster: The Brutal Failure That Saved D-Day

On August 19, 1942, Operation Jubilee became one of WWII's darkest chapters. The Dieppe Raid was meant to be a full-scale test for the invasion of Europe, an Allied assault on a fortified German port. Instead, it became an absolute massacre.

In this 60-second history documentary, we explore the catastrophe at Dieppe. Witness how the steel spearhead of Churchill tanks was stopped dead by impassable pebble beaches, becoming static coffins for German anti-tank guns. See how Canadian infantry were systematically cut to pieces, pinned down by the relentless fire from Hitler’s formidable Atlantic Wall.

With nearly 4,000 casualties, the failure was total. But this immense sacrifice was not in vain. The brutal, bloody lesson learned at Dieppe was the critical turning point that forced Allied command to rethink everything. They realized they could not take a port. They would have to bring one with them—a decision that directly led to the Mulberry Harbors and the ultimate success of D-Day.
