Amid the multitude of D-Day accounts, the usual focus lies on the Allies' victory. But what was the experience of a German soldier in Normandy's bunkers, facing history's mightiest seaborne invasion?

This book delves into the motivations and struggles of these defenders. How did they cope with the advancing Allied forces, tanks, flamethrowers, and air superiority? Insights from post-war German survivors shed light on their mindset, actions, and choices.

This perspective uncovers the humanity of ordinary German soldiers, facing overwhelming odds and reevaluating impregnable bunkers turned tragic tombs.
