Exercise Tiger and the Disastrous Dress Rehearsal for D-Day

15 min • 27 augusti 2024

The Allied invasion of Normandy was one of the most complex military operations ever conducted. Thousands of ships and planes had to work in conjunction with tens of thousands of soldiers who had to do one of the most difficult things in warfare: an amphibious landing. 

In addition to all of the planning that went into the invasion, there were many unknowns. The only way to learn was to practice some of the elements of the landing. 

In April 1944, about six weeks before D-Day, the Allies conducted a practice exercise off the coast of England, and it turned into one of the biggest disasters of the war.
