Question

Prepare a comparison of the Dieppe landing and the D-Day invasion. Why was D-day a success and why was Dieppe a failure?

Answer 1

Many believe that Dieppe was a failure because of inadequate reserves and firepower. The end result was that the troops were unable to break through the German line right above the beachhead.

In contrast, the Allies at D-Day had adequate reserves and provided ample firepower to allow troops to realistically break through the German lines.
