9.9- Victory in Europe

Defeating Germany President Roosevelt and other Allied leaders promised to punish the Nazis after the war. Roosevelt felt destroying the Nazi regime would put an end to the concentration camps. Americans began advancing across Europe after the D-Day invasion.

Battles Across Europe The Germans used hedgerows to defend their positions in Normandy, France. American bombers eventually blew a hole in the German battle lines. This allowed American tanks through. The Americans liberated Paris on August 25, Three weeks later- they were just 20 miles from the German border.

Battle of the Bulge Hitler attempted one last offensive to cut off Allied supplies coming through the port of Antwerp, Belgium. The Battle of the Bulge- December 16, 1944 The Germans raced west, their lines “bulged” outward The US won the battle and on January 8 Germans withdrew into Germany.

Germany Retreats The Americans crossed the Rhine River into Germany- forcing the Germans back. Adolf Hitler- realizing the end was near- killed himself. His successor- Grand Admiral Karl Doenitz unconditionally surrendered on May 7, The next day was proclaimed V-E Day- Victory in Europe.
