German Field Marshal General Erwin Rommel inspects army coastal defense of Normandy. In January 1944, Rommel was appointed commander of Army Group "B" in northern France. He tried to make the "Atlantic Wall" a serious obstacle to the Allied forces. However, due to strategic differences with the commander of the entire German army group in France - Field Marshal Rundstedt, a single plan to defend the western border of the Reich has not been developed, which led to the slow and inconsistent actions of the German troops during the Allied landings in Normandy on June 6, 1944.
