The invasion at Normandy largely depended on the Resistance.
this is not true. with regards to operation overlord, the resistance had very little/almost no impact. the invasion mainly depended on massive air attacks and surprise (in terms of the landing zone)
http://www.museumstuff.com/learn/topics … Resistance
So that Normandy landing can be a complete success, the Allies require the French resistance networks to take part in the preparation of this operation which bears from now on the name of Overlord Operation.

Alarms are sent to resistant via the radio: the BBC, during its French broadcast, transmitted coded messages which had all their significance and their recipients. Thus, five days before June 6, 1944 (D-Day), the listeners of the French broadcast of the BBC can hear the first three lines of the “Chant d'automne” poem of Verlaine ("Les sanglots longs - Des Violons - De l'automne...").

The significance of this message is as follows: the landing will happend this week and once the three next lines of this poem are broadcasted ("Blessent mon coeur - D'une langueur - Monotone..."), the offensive will start 48 hours later. These numerous messages announce the beginning of the sabotage operations: the resistants then destroy railroads, telephone lines and install anti-tank mines on the roads. In the night of June 5, 1944, nearly 1000 sabotage actions will be carried out by the French resistance.
Most importantly they provided the intelligence for the bombing campaign.

Not only that but they were instrumental in disrupting german supply lines.

so, operation overlord depended on the resistance? as devastating as this would be for the american chauvinists on this forum, it's just wrong. the resistance could not decisively disrupt german supply lines. the resistance contributed some support for the allied forces but then again, it was far from being decisive

I thought he went to yale or something.  The French resistance was helpful but ultimately it was the deception of the allies at Pas de Calais and Hitlers unwillingness to allow his generals to make decisions.  IE release the armored units to reinforce the beachheads.

I said largely depended on. Which it absolutely did by providing intellegence (a point you ignored), as well as the sabatoge operation. That is not to say it was the only component of prelanding preperations, or that they were the sole reason for success. However, I presented evidence of the french resistance impact and your best response is no it didn't?

Just watched the second to last episode, it's getting really exciting! It seems like Hitler is going to lose the war, but maybe the Russians and Americans will start fighting each other? Shit, wouldn't that be a pretty scary thought, two massive nations like that going at it.
I hope Hitler gets captured and put on trial.

well, tbh i'm too lazy to name some books (or look for links) from which i got my knowledge from. the resistance providing intelligence was also far from being decisive for the outcome of the allied operations. like the sabotage acts, it had little or no impact for the successful landings

to put it very simple: with no help whatsoever of the resistance, operation overlord would have had the exact same outcome that it had

You cited the bombing runs as critical. Are you saying the fr didn't provide much of the intelligence for that? The sabotoge operation did play a part, and when I am on my computer I will provide more detail. Much of the information regarding what the french did during wwii doesn't make it in to the pop culture history books or links. Unfortunately, many supposed history buffs do consider pop culture as history. Its just easy to claim superior knowledge that way. This is not nessecarily an indictment against you. But it's easy to see how the details of the behind the scene operations could get ignored, and how they could be given little relevance.
