One of the bigger German problems was that the troops were under a maze of commanding structures and parts of the army were lead by Rommel,Rundstedt and Hitler, and naturally the final word was always AH`s.

Of course the situation for axis tanks was bad anyway, the losses would be huge whether it be the navy cannons or the bombers.

Bombing of the railways and roads was not only a problem for the Germans. Once the allied were moving ahead they also could not get as fast ahead as they wished because of the damage caused.

One of the weirdest things about the Overlord on the Allied side in my opinion is that so much was done for the landings to succeed but nothing was realized/taught about the bocage fighting?!
