Inspired by this thread: Here
What would have happened if in the case of no american entry into WW2 the British and Commonwealth forces had launched their own version of D-Day ? What sort of difference would it make and would it have gone as well as OTL's version.
The base scenario is one where the war progresses roughly as OTL although the Axis does better because of lack of US forces. However by 1944/1945 ish the situation is similar to the one for our D-Day with Allied forces having liberated Africa and pushing through Italy and Eastern Europe.
What would the British have done differently given the oppertunity to plan it alone ? How many troops would they land and would free/empire forces get their own landing beaches as the Canadians did ?
Apologies if this has been discussed before: Search down.
