Eisenhower learned Hitler misread invasion timing
Lt Gen W Bedell Smith, Eisenhower's chief of staff, said Hitler believed the Allies would land in Normandy. Smith cited German staff interrogations showing Hitler settled on Normandy in May 1944 after considering other sites. Allied plans then shifted to surprise and weather, with June 6 chosen as D-Day after storm forecasts favored an assault across the Pas de Calais region.
