I took some time today to look at pictures of the Allied forces building up for Operation Overlord and the invasion itself, Operation Neptune.

That truly was the most impressive show of force ever recorded on film. I got goosebumps just looking at the pictures.

I can't imagine the Germans were feeling too confident once they saw the endless lines of ships and landing craft stretching back to the horizon as far as they could see in both directions. They had to have known that they were effed at that point.
