D-Day 1944

 

by Otto Dietrich, American Reich Press

November 14, 1951

 

as foul weather gave way to fair seas

with Allied paratroopers and glider troops

blindly scattered inland

Allied warships now began bombardment

of the landing sites

 

most Panzers had been stationed near Calais,

agitated by reports of paratroops at Normandy

but holding still until released by the Fuhrer

 

however, the Reich's 3000 Japanese kamikaze

hidden in the French countryside

were under immediate Luftwaffe command

so they quickly launched towards Normandy

and sank over 400 Allied warships

including very full troop ships,

Allied hands lost numbered around 77000,

only a dozen kamikaze washed ashore alive,

a slaughterhouse at sea

 

only the Allied Omaha beach landing site

disembarked troops but were quickly destroyed

and no other Allied landing sites were reached,

while Panzer divisions were able to move in

and annihilate most paratroopers,

survivors melted into the woods

as the terrorist squads they are today

 

Allied commanders kept the movement of

hundreds of ships and the real invasion site

top secret

and knew the Luftwaffe had very few numbers

but the Allies in turn were caught

completely unaware

by our secret counter move

of captured Soviet planes brought over

and manned by 3000 Japanese kamikaze

plus 300 Hitler Youth kamikaze

most with minimal air combat training

despite many planes being the formidable

Soviet Yak-9 fighters, fast and armed

with one torpedo escorted right up to target

resulting in highly accurate detonation

by not just one kamikaze

but often two or three

against an Allied destroyer

or bulky supply or troop ship

 

why did the Reich acquire so many kamikaze?

the Reich knew around what day

the invasion would happen

but Allied misinformation

cleverly made our tanks amass

at the wrong site Calais,

however

as a backup plan since Luftwaffe were depleted

our Axis friends had earlier made

kamikaze pilots readily available

since they could fly quickly in either direction

to Calais or Normandy

with strict orders to avoid air combat

then aim for and sink large ships

long before RAF could give sufficient response,

having knocked out only 226 kamikaze as the

rest slipped through with their 3000 torpedoes

 

where did the Reich find 3300 Soviet planes?

much earlier, in 1942

after Manstein's successful breakthrough of

"Winter Storm" rescue forces near Stalingrad

using massive air support

so that Field Marshal Paulus' Sixth Army

could break out of encirclement in Stalingrad

later resulting in Soviet losses at Kharkov

with 600 Soviet tanks and 1200 artillery

during the "backhand blow" of February 1943,

plus 10000 tanks and 4200 aircraft in August,

Soviet armies were forced to retreat northward

losing Stalingrad and the oil fields

so that Allied commanders planned D-Day

to take pressure off

and prevent Soviet surrender,

but

with the Allied defeat at D-Day

and later the Reich's atomic bombs

on Moscow and Leningrad

all Soviet forces were rendered ineffective

and scattered into Siberia as guerilla fighters

 

how did 3000 Japanese kamikaze pilots

become available?

at Midway 1942

the Americans had cracked the Japanese code

and secretly sent all their carrier groups

to Midway to intercept the Japanese fleet

which had just attacked Midway island

so all Japanese carrier decks were vulnerable

with bombs and fuel all over the flight decks

while all fighters were away chasing after

American planes that had failed

their initial attack on the Japanese fleet,

thus the entire Japanese fleet was undefended

but

all American dive bombers that could have

caught the ships by surprise

had completely lost their way instead

with many running out of fuel at sea

before ever finding the Japanese fleet

giving time for all Japanese planes to switch

from ground explosives to torpedoes

since their commander refused to launch

whatever was ready

but waited for every plane

to be rearmed with torpedoes

(a very high risk decision

for which he was later executed

after several classified

High Castle film footage surfaced

that the Fuhrer handed over to Tokyo),

as one

they then sank all American carriers

and took Midway

then Hawaii

and assisted in defeating the Allies at D-Day

giving the much needed time

for the Reich to develop atomic bombs,

for which the Fuhrer is eternally grateful

to our dear Axis friend
