What If D-Day Had Failed? WW2 Wouldn't End Until 1947 | History Undone Archive

The sixth of June 1944 D-Day 80 years on, is still the largest amphibious invasion of all time. It's a date that evokes emotion and national pride in equal measure, and it not only changed the Second World War, but history itself. Yet, what if the operation hadn't been a success?


Welcome to History Undone with James Hanson, the show where we take an alternative look at the events which have shaped our world. Each episode will focus on a different battle from throughout history, but using modern military analysis, we'll ask how things could have played out differently with a few tactical changes.


This week we're delving back into our archive, as James Hanson is joined by historian and researcher at The Tank Museum - Chris Copson, and former Amphibious Commander - Rear Admiral Dr Chris Parry, to investigate what would have happened if the offensive action at Omaha and other beaches had failed.
