  1. What a complete waste of resources on the part of the Germans. Just as the British realized the islands were indefensible from anyone occupying the French mainland, The Germans must, or should have, realized, they would just as indefinable for the Germans once the coasts behind them were occupied by the Allies. The sufferings of the British civilians and German occupiers when they were cut off from supplies is one of the little known stories from the war. Still, Churchill made the right choice by doing the same kind of island hopping campaign the US did in the Pacific. There were enough German troops and defenses than any opposed landings would have taken many lives on other sides.
