Operation Overlord was the plan for opening a Western Front during World War II by landing American, British, Canadian and assort Allied troops in Normandy on the coast of German-occupied France and pushing into Paris.

Operation Overlord in "Joe Steele"Edit

President Joe Steele was reluctant to commit US forces to Operation Overlord, preferring that Germany and the Soviet Union pound on each other. However, once it was clear that the USSR had the upper hand, Steele pushed ahead with Overlord for fear of Soviet domination in Europe.

Operation Overlord in "Ready for the Fatherland"Edit

In the aftermath of the separate peace concluded between Germany and Soviet Union, Operation Overlord proved to be a disaster for US and British forces.
