In August 1944, as the Allies approached Paris, underground resistance groups within the city began to strategize for an uprising to support the city's liberation. Meanwhile, Hitler had appointed General von Choltitz as the new commander in Paris, giving him explicit orders to destroy the city if it seemed likely that the Allies would capture it.
