Main idea
Casablanca Conference- Roosevelt and Churchill meet in monoco to discuss the bombing of Germany
Strategic bombing- the allies plan was to drop bombs where it would have the greatest effect. They would target factories and large industries
Dwight D. Eisenhower- general in command for the envision of Sicily
DUKW- a new truck during the war that was very high tech
Cassino
Anzio- two towns that were involved in the invasion of Sicily
Tehran- and Iranian city where Stalin Roosevelt and Churchill met up before the invasion of France
Overlord-the allies tricked the Germans into thinking that they were going to attack pas-de-Calais
Why did they choose D-Day. Weather, tide, support
Island Hopping- smashing and blasting from one island to the next
Tarawa- the us lost a ton of troops here because they were not ready for the japs
Guadalcanal- a battle that the us was poorly prepared for and lost many troops
Kamikaze.japans final struggle to win. They suicide bombed everything they could
