General Fritz Bayerlein believed his elite Panzer Lehr Division was invincible in the Normandy hedgerows. He was wrong. On July 25, 1944, the US Army unleashed "Operation Cobra"—an industrial experiment that replaced tactics with TNT. In just 60 minutes, 1,500 heavy bombers turned the battlefield into a moonscape, burying tanks and shattering the Wehrmacht's finest unit.
This video explores how American industrial power utilized "carpet bombing" to obliterate German defenses at Saint-Lô, proving that in modern war, logistics defeats courage.
