Patton vs von Kluge - Normandy Breakout (S01E01)

In the weeks following the D-Day landings, Allied forces found themselves trapped in the thick Normandy bocage, with its small fields, narrow roads, and towering hedgerows. Here, German snipers and anti-tank ambushes caused heavy losses to the troops. The only way to break this stalemate was through a bold breakout maneuver, a task assigned to the dynamic and driven General George Patton. Once Patton's armored units were deployed on the Allied right flank and began to maneuver behind German lines, the exhausted forces led by Guenther Hans von Kluge struggled to maintain their defenses.
