Bombing of Normandy
1944 Allied aerial bombing in France during World War II
The Bombing of Normandy during the Normandy invasion was meant to destroy the German communication lines in the Norman cities and towns. However, few German soldiers occupied these municipalities, who were mostly located elsewhere. On 9 July 1944, Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery ordered a massive air assault against Caen in the hopes of clearing the way for a ground attack the following morning.
