The Day the German Army Froze: Why D-Day Was Lost in the High Command

On the night of June 5, 1944, the German Army was ready for the invasion—but they were looking in the wrong place. This is the untold story from the concrete pillboxes of the Atlantic Wall and the deep bunkers of the High Command (OKW).

We explore the catastrophic strategic failures that doomed the German defense within the crucial first 24 hours:

Hitler’s Delusion: The story of how Adolf Hitler's absolute certainty—and his obsession with the fictitious invasion at Pas-de-Calais (Operation Fortitude)—paralyzed the German defenses.

The Panzer Crisis: The disastrous command split between Field Marshals Rommel and Von Rundstedt, which left Germany's vital armored reserves (the Panzer Lehr) locked down and stationary, awaiting an order that didn't come until it was too late.

The Power of the Jabo: The terrifying psychological experience of German officers on the ground, cut off and helpless under the overwhelming blanket of Allied air superiority—the "Jabos"—that turned every French road into a shooting gallery.

Strategic Defeat: The brutal reality that the war in the West was lost not on the beaches, but in the hours of paralysis that followed the first paratrooper drop.

Join us inside the bunkers to witness the strategic denial and command failure that guaranteed the success of the Normandy landings.
