Could Britain/Free France Pull Off D-Day?
Background:
U.S. not directly involved in European Theater but is sending lend lease
Eastern Front unfolding similar to OTL and Churchill fears Soviets will end up beyond the Rhine
North Africa and Sicily cleared by end of 1943, invasion of Italian mainland cancelled
In this scenario could Great Britain and Free French forces pull off something similar to Operation Overlord in 1944? Could Free French divisions take the beaches that would were in OTL assigned to the United States? How capable were the Free French when compared to OTL American divisions? Do you think the landings would succeed or fail?
