You're Top Poster: #2 | The Luftwaffe angle: odframe It was actually scheduled earlier but postponed: http://www.eisenhower.archives.gov/d...lPapersNo2.pdf Nice overview here: Operation Anvil/Dragoon I haven't had time to read everything (thanks to Kyt for these links) but thought this overlooked landing/s might be of interest.
