Answer:

A. The specific missions of the two airborne divisions were to block approaches into the vicinity of the amphibious landing at Utah Beach, to capture causeway exits off the beaches, and to establish crossings over the Douve River at Carentan to assist the U.S. V Corps in merging the two U.S. beachheads.

B. The biggest anxiety for the airborne commanders was in linking up with the widely scattered forces west of the Merderet. Many continued to roam and fight behind enemy lines for up to 5 days.

C. They began by fortifying the Atlantic Wall in Normandy with more machine gun bunkers, millions of beachfront landmines, and by flooding inland marshes to trap Allied paratroopers. Their strategic preparations would ultimately help the Nazis inflict terrible Allied casualties on D-Day

In 1930's Germany, Hitler rose to power with his Nazi Party, becoming known as "der Führer". He wanted to avenge Germany's loss of WWI and territory thanks to the Treaty of Versailles. In Italy, Benito Mussolini and Fascism rose to power as well, promising reorganization of the country and economic solutions for it. On the other hand, Japan started invading Manchuria in 1930 in search for raw materials. Soon the three powers known as The Axis would start their tactical moves.
