History is fascinating to me, especially the second world war. Did you ever hear about the Atlantic wall? In 1941 Adolf Hitler who was the commander of the German Nazis gave an order to General Erwin Rommel to build a massive wall to prevent the allied army from invading Germany.The construction of the Atlantic wall begin in 1941 and in 1944 the wall was complete. It had over six thousand bunkers, one million land and underwater mines, six thousand army men, and thirty miles of barbed wire.
On June six 1944, D-Day started and Allied army breached through the wall only in fourteen hours and over ten thousand men had lost their lives. The Atlantic wall failed to protect Germany. Parts of the Atlantic wall still exist today.
If you want to know more about the Atlantic wall you should watch a movie called Saving Private Ryan. This movie took place during the D-Day which is 6/6/1944. I wrote about the Atlantic wall because I love history about the second world war and the Atlantic wall is one of my interest and passions.
